# Commission Decision of 6 October 2004 declaring a concentration compatible with the common market and the EEA Agreement (Case COMP/M.3431 — Sonoco/Ahlstrom) (notified under document number C(2004) 3678) (Only the English text is authentic) (2005/452/EC), Division (11)

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

As a result of the market investigation four geographic markets were identified: (i) Continental Europe (leaving open the question whether a further separation in a Northern and a Southern part is appropriate as was suggested by some respondents), (ii) the Scandinavian countries (leaving open the question whether Denmark should be included or not), (iii) Finland and (iv) UK/Ireland. The division of the Continental market and the question as to whether Denmark should be included in the Scandinavian market can be left open, since the competitive assessment does not change.
