Konsum Dresden would like to join the Edeka network. However, one decisive hurdle still needs to be overcome.

The Konsumgenossenschaft Konsum Dresden eG wants to join the Edeka group. This process will now be notified to the Federal Cartel Office, Konsum Dresden announced. Following the notification, the Cartel Office must approve the application before the cooperation can begin. If this happens, Konsum Dresden will be supplied with food and other goods by Edeka as its main supplier from the middle of next year. Nevertheless, Konsum Dresden will continue to operate under its well-known brand and will bear the name affix "Partner der Edeka" in future.

The Federal Cartel Office had already approved the entry of Konsumgenossenschaft Leipzig into the Edeka group in May. According to the cartel office, the Edeka Group is the leading provider in the German food retail sector and has a nationwide sales network with around 11,000 locations. In 2023, the group achieved a turnover of more than 70 billion euros.
