Supermarket Development Corporation, et. al.; Prohibited Trade Practices and Affirmative Corrective Actions
This order reopens a 1988 consent order that settled allegations that the acquisition of the El Paso Division of Safeway Stores, Inc., by Supermarket Development Corporation and Furr's, Inc. would reduce supermarket competition in 12 towns in New Mexico and western Texas, and required prior Commission approval, for ten years, before acquiring supermarket assets. This order modifies the consent order by substituting for the prior-approval requirement a provision requiring Furr's Supermarket to notify the Commission at least 30 days before acquiring certain supermarkets in those areas.
