In this book, leading experts in the field examine the effects of
the recent growth in concentration in the European food retailing
sector. In particular, the book develops a number of buyer power
propositions and builds on the previous work of several of the
authors, to consider how the growth of large supermarket chains
affects competition in food retailing. The authors outline the
theoretical and policy analysis underpinning the work and assess
evidence on the size and growth of supermarket chains across the
EU. Whilst not entirely critical, they suggest that there is strong
evidence in some countries that supermarkets use their buying power
to impose unfair terms and conditions on suppliers, particularly
affecting small suppliers. The authors use case studies, to provide
an in-depth analysis of four European countries, namely France,
Germany, Spain and the UK. The book ends with a discussion of
policy issues against a backdrop of likely future trends in
concentration in this area. Academics working in the areas of
microeconomics and industrial economics as well as those involved
in European competition policy more generally, such as lawyers,
civil servants and consultancy groups, will find this volume
enlightening.
