Hong Kong consults on Keeta commitments to ease restrictions on restaurants
( April 28, 2026, 06:36 GMT | Official Statement) -- MLex Summary: Hong Kong's Competition Commission is consulting on a proposed commitment from Keeta, the global arm of Chinese food delivery giant Meituan, to amend agreements with partnering restaurants that may have hindered competition. The proposal would allow restaurants to partner with new entrants and small platforms without losing the benefits they receive for working exclusively with Keeta; make it easier for restaurants to switch from exclusivity; and remove provisions preventing restaurants from offering lower prices on competing platforms or their own channels. The consultation runs until May 12, the commission said in a statement on Tuesday.Statement attached....
