The European Commission on 8 April 2005 cleared under the EU Merger Regulation the public bid by French AS Watson - owned by Hong Kong-based Hutchinson Whampoa Limited - for all the shares in Marionnaud Parfumeries, a company mainly active in the retail sale of luxury perfumes and cosmetics. The Commission concluded that there were minimal overlaps of activities and as such the acquisition would not significantly impede effective competition in the EEA or any substantial part of it. |
