LDC Faces UK Regulatory Review on Green Label Acquisition

LDC, a leading French agri-food group, has been notified by the UK Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) about the initiation of a review procedure. This process pertains to LDC's recent acquisition of a majority stake in Green Label Holdings Ltd., which was initially announced in December 2025.

The CMA's review requires LDC and Green Label to operate independently until the procedure concludes, which is anticipated by mid-2026. The review aims to assess the competitive implications of the acquisition in the UK market.

This development is part of LDC's strategic expansion in Europe, aligning with its aim for sustainable growth through targeted acquisitions. While the assessment is ongoing, LDC continues to pursue its operations across its extensive network in multiple European countries.
