Chris Quin: Foodstuff's North Island CEO on Commerce Commission's pending decision on merger of operations - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

The Commerce Commission is pushing out its timeline for approving the Foodstuffs merger, due to "unresolved issues". 

It now expects to reach a decision in October. 

The North and South Island co-operatives - which run the Pak'nSave, New World and Four Square supermarkets - sought clearance to merge last year. 

Foodstuff's North Island Chief Executive Chris Quin told Heather du Plessis-Allan “We knew this could happen, but we remain committed that this is the right thing to do.”
