(Reuters) – The German cartel office said on Tuesday it opened an investigation into Coca-Cola Europacific Partners Deutschland over pricing practices in the country.
“There are indications that Coca-Cola could competitively hinder other companies through the design of its conditions towards German food retailers, in particular the discount structure,” Andreas Mundt, president of the cartel office, said in a statement.
