Canada seeks to block Nortera-B&G Foods deal

Canada’s Competition Bureau has asked the Competition Tribunal to stop Nortera Foods' planned purchase of B&G Foods' Green Giant and Le Sieur vegetable business in Canada. The Bureau said its investigation found the proposed transaction would weaken competition and likely lead to higher prices and fewer choices for staple items at the grocery store. It also asked the Tribunal to prevent the companies from closing the deal until a decision is issued. B&G Foods announced in October it was selling the Canadian businesses to Nortera as part of an effort to divest non-pivotal brands and reduce long-term debt. Nortera said it is reviewing the Bureau's position and remains in talks with B&G Foods regarding next steps.

Canada imposes temporary 10% safeguard tariff on canned vegetable imports

Canada has imposed a temporary 10% safeguard tariff on imports of canned vegetables to protect domestic growers and food processors. The measure took effect on June 19 and will remain in place for up to 200 days, following an investigation into possible trade diversion. The tariff does not apply to imports from the United States, Mexico, Israel, Chile, or developing countries, in compliance with Canada's international trade obligations. The action comes amid concerns that shifting global trade flows could increase canned vegetable imports and harm domestic producers.
