ACCC does not oppose Coles' proposed acquisition of Jewel Fine Foods
The ACCC has announced it will not oppose the proposed acquisition of Jewel Fine Foods (in voluntary administration since April 2019) by Coles Group subsidiary, Chef Fresh Pty Ltd.
The ACCC had initially opposed the sale of Jewel to B&J City Kitchen for fear it would lessen competition for the supply of chilled ready meals; the sale to Coles removes that concern.
