The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) is investigating the planned acquisition by Boparan Private Office Limited (via 2 Agriculture Limited) of ForFarmers UK Limited’s Burston and Radstock feed mills.
The CMA is considering whether the transaction would result in a “substantial lessening of competition within any market or markets in the United Kingdom for goods or services.”
A previous plan by the two companies to create a joint venture involving 19 feed mills was blocked in 2023 by the CMA.
The CMA is now inviting comments from any interested parties, which can be sent via this email address: 2Agriculture.ForFarmers@cma.gov.uk
