Congressmen Frost and Nadler have called for an antitrust investigation by the DOJ and FTC into Sysco's $29.1 billion acquisition of Restaurant Depot, warning it could reduce competition, raise costs for independent restaurants, and lead to higher dining prices for consumers.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Foodtech.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Regulators are stepping up scrutiny on food distribution mergers, making market access tighter for large deals that threaten small restaurants. You need to prepare for stricter competition reviews if you operate in restaurant supply or agribusiness.
