The Federal Trade Commission reached a settlement in the Southern Glazer case. The National Grocers Association said independent grocers face differences in the prices and terms available to them compared with the nation's largest retailers. NGA called for consistent enforcement of antitrust laws and said it will work with policymakers and antitrust enforcers on competition policy.
