NEWSDECK ANALYSIS
The UK's Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has been examining the use of restrictive property agreements, known as land covenants or agreements, which can limit the use of land for retail purposes. These agreements have been used by retailers, including discounters, to restrict competition by preventing other stores from opening nearby. The CMA's proposed changes aim to address concerns that such agreements can stifle competition and limit consumer choice in the UK grocery market.
