    (Case M.9362 — Suez Organique/Avril PA/Terrial)

    Candidate case for simplified procedure

    (Text with EEA relevance)

    (2019/C 192/16)

    1.   

    On 28 May 2019, the Commission received notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1).

    This notification concerns the following undertakings:

    Suez Organique SAS (‘Suez Organique’, France),

    Avril SCA (‘Avril’, France),

    SAS Terrial (‘Terrial’, France), solely controlled by Avril.

    Suez Organique and Avril acquire within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) and 3(4) of the Merger Regulation joint control over Terrial.

    The concentration is accomplished by way of purchase of shares and contribution of assets.

    2.   

    The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:

    —   for Suez Organique: biological treatment of organic waste,

    —   for Avril: production and sale of oil-based products and animal feed,

    —   for Terrial: organic waste collection as well as production and sale of organic soil amendments and fertilisers.

    3.   

    On preliminary examination, the Commission finds that the notified transaction could fall within the scope of the Merger Regulation. However, the final decision on this point is reserved.

    Pursuant to the Commission Notice on a simplified procedure for treatment of certain concentrations under the Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (2) it should be noted that this case is a candidate for treatment under the procedure set out in the Notice.
