The food industry is currently undergoing a period of consolidation. There are high profile mergers, such as the proposed merger between Sysco and US Foods, currently being challenged by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). But the phenomenon is much broader. The Food Institute recorded 503 mergers in the food industry in 2014, a significant increase over the 311 mergers recorded in 2013. That same organization has also reported 37 supermarket mergers in 2014, up from 28 deals in 2013.
