South Africa: The Competition Tribunal has received a recommendation from the Competition Commission that it should allow aggregates producer Afrimat to acquire Lafarge South Africa. Creamer Engineering News has reported that the commission found that the merger involves ‘horizontal overlaps’ in the aggregates and ready-mix concrete sectors. As such, it recommended that the parties be required to divest assets across the affected sectors.
