WOOD Flash – Turkish food retail: severe penalties announced by the Competition Authority

On Friday (29 October), the Turkish Competition Authority announced that, following the official hearings on 27 October, it has imposed fines on food retailers ranging from 2.5% of the market cap for BIM, to 5.7% for SOK and 8.2% for Migros. While the market was closed on 29 October, we expect a major negative reaction today (1 November), when it resumes trading.
