The U.K.'s Competition and Markets Authority said Wednesday it
is inviting comments on a proposed joint venture between British
pub operator Marston's PLC and Danish brewer Carlsberg AS, as it
considers whether the deal might hurt competition.
The invitation to comment closes on Sept. 2, the antitrust
regulator said.
Marston's in May said it planned to form the venture with
Carlsberg UK Holdings Ltd. to create Carlsberg Marston's Brewing
Co., a U.K. brewer and beer distributor. Last month, the pub
operator said it expected the joint venture to be completed in the
fourth quarter.
