office Depot and Staples, the largest U.S. workplace suppliers, on Tuesday canceled plans to merge after a federal judge sided with the Federal trade fee over antitrust concerns.

U.S. District choose Emmet Sullivan blocked the $6.three billion deal because the FTC met the “burden ofshowing that there is an inexpensive probability that the proposed merger will significantly impairopposition within the sale and distribution of consumable office supplies to huge commercial enterprise-to-enterprise customers.”

Staples released a announcement in which it said both groups “plan to terminate their mergeragreement.” The groups hoped to create more than $1 billion in annual savings with the deal.

“we are extremely disenchanted that the FTC’s request for preliminary injunction turned into granted in spite of the reality that it didn’t outline the relevant marketplace effectively, and fell woefully quick of proving its case,” Staples CEO Ron Sargent wrote.
