22 Sep 2026 Empire Company LimitedSobeys parent Empire: consent agreement on property controls in grocery retail CanadaCompetition law Order

Empire Company Limited, parent company of grocery banners such as Sobeys, Farm Boy, Safeway, IGA, Foodland, FreshCo, Marché Bonichoix and Les Marchés Tradition, reached an agreement with the Competition Bureau on its use of property controls in the Canadian grocery sector. The Commissioner of Competition filed it with the Competition Tribunal as a registered consent agreement on 22 September 2026. In June 2026 the Bureau had obtained court orders to advance its investigation into these property controls.

What organisations can take from it

Use and exclusivity restrictions on property can be challenged under competition law where they make it harder for competitors to access sites.
