    Foodstuffs is again trying to bring its North and South Island operations under one roof - after failing two years ago

    2 March 2026
    The company's heading to the High Court to appeal a 2024 Commerce Commission decision blocking its plan.

    Grocery Action Group Chair, Sue Chetwin, says letting it do so would only strengthen the duopoloy.

    She says upstream, suppliers would have less choice on whom they could sell goods.

    Sue Chetwin says right now there are three, with Woolworths, but it would be down to just two with a merger.
