Kelkoo Group was a hugely successful comparison-shopping service that was taken to a cliff edge by Google’s self-preferencing behaviour. We have been lobbying for fundamental change and fairness in global digital markets since 2011 and are one of the lead complainants in the Google Shopping case in Europe. We are in regular dialogue with global regulators who are keen to restore fair and contestable digital markets.

“Competition is absolutely key,” says @Teresaribera, and @KelkooPolicy could not agree more. We are pleased that Commissioner-Designate Ribera is committed to the enforcement of the DMA and focussing on the worst offenders.
