Was the joy short-lived? The Les Mousquetaires group, owner of the Intermarché brand, declared this Wednesday that it was forced to resell three of the 61 stores purchased from Casino in October. These operations were provided for in an agreement reached in May which allowed the latter to reduce its debt and the former to increase its market share, during two waves of successive sales of Casino stores.
One of the two Breton stores sold
Now, according to what the group declared, “the Competition Authority has expressed very serious doubts regarding the competition in the catchment area” of three stores: the Plouaret supermarket, in Côtes-d’Armor – one of the two to have been sold in Brittany to Intermarché in October with that of La Gacilly in Morbihan – but also the hypermarkets of Vals-près-le-Puy (Haute-Loire) and Lons-le-Saunier ( Jura).
A decision in January?
