On 13 January 2006, the Commission received a notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1) by which the undertaking GIB (Belgium), jointly controlled by the undertakings Compagnie Nationale à Portefeuille (Belgium) and Ackermans & van Haaren (Belgium), acquires within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Council Regulation control of the whole of the undertaking Financière Flo (‘Flo’, France), parent of the Flo group, by way of purchase of shares.

2.

The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:

for GIB: quick service restaurants;

for Flo: restaurants.

3.

On preliminary examination, the Commission finds that the notified transaction could fall within the scope of Regulation (EC) No 139/2004. However, the final decision on this point is reserved. Pursuant to the Commission Notice on a simplified procedure for treatment of certain concentrations under 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.
