Taiwan Blocks Uber's $950 Million Foodpanda Acquisition Over Monopoly Concerns
- Taiwan has rejected Uber's plan to buy Delivery Hero's Foodpanda due to monopoly concerns, stating the deal would significantly harm market competition.
- If Uber acquires Foodpanda, it would be completely unrestrained by competition, leading to higher prices for consumers and increased commissions for restaurant operators.
- The merged companies' market share would exceed 90 percent, which raises serious concerns about competition.
- Taiwan concluded that no corrective measures could sufficiently ensure competition would be maintained after the merger.
