The Polish Competition Authority has approved Hoffmann SE's acquisition of Hch. Perschmann GmbH, concluding that the merger does not raise competition concerns.

15.03.2026 | Polish Competition Authority (DKK)


The Polish Competition Authority (UOKiK) has issued Decision No DKK-70/2026 on March 16, 2026, granting approval for Hoffmann SE, based in Munich, Germany, to acquire control over Hch. Perschmann GmbH, located in Brunswick, Germany.

This decision follows an antitrust investigation initiated at the request of Hoffmann SE. The authority determined that the merger would not adversely affect competition in the relevant markets.

Notably, the decision did not require any remedies or conditions, as it fully aligned with the requests of the parties involved. The authority opted not to provide a detailed justification for the decision, citing that it did not resolve any contentious interests between the parties and was not issued in response to an appeal.

Parties have the right to appeal this decision to the District Court in Warsaw within one month of its delivery, with a fixed court fee of 1000 PLN applicable for such appeals.
