Market definition
The merger was examined within the context of the Western Australian market for the supply of salt and Eastern Australian market for the supply of salt.Competition analysis
The merger between Mitsui and Salt Asia Holdings is unlikely to lead to a substantial lessening of competition in any Australian market for the supply of salt since neither company supplies salt into any Australian market because their production is all exported.Timeline
