The Romanian competition body Consiliul Concurentei authorized the transaction by which Abatorul Periș, the largest pig and pork processor in the southeast of Romania, takes over three regional meat processing and marketing units owned by the local entrepreneur Alin Zamfira through the Cathedral Group.
The target companies are Almado Total Distribution, Cathedral Distribution, and Policalita, Economica.net reported.
