# Commission Decision of 11 November 2003 declaring a concentration compatible with the common market and the EEA Agreement (Case COMP/M.2621 — SEB/Moulinex) (notified under document number C(2003) 4157) (Only the French text is authentic) (Text with EEA relevance) (2005/408/EC), Division (23)

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

On the market in mini ovens, SEB’s position is stronger. The figures show that the new entity would have a share of [30-40] % of the Spanish market. Its main competitors are DeLonghi [20-25] %, Jata [5-10] %, Ufesa and Severin ([5-10] % each). Although they have smaller market shares than the new entity, these operators none the less have must-have brands and a broad range covering all the capacities available on the market (10/12 litres, 18/20 litres, 26/28 litres). Moreover, prices are tending to fall on this market, there is regular innovation and entry barriers are low. Lastly, although not included in the relevant market, microwave ovens with grill pose a not inconsiderable competitive constraint, and the Moulinex brand has limited potential for recovering the position it held in 2000.
