A Non-Compete Agreement After Acquisition is a crucial document used in Belgian business transactions to protect the buyer's investment by preventing sellers from competing with the acquired business. This agreement is particularly important in Belgium, where competition law requires careful balancing between protecting legitimate business interests and maintaining fair market competition. The document typically follows the completion of a business acquisition and outlines specific restrictions on the seller's future business activities, including geographical limitations, time periods, and scope of prohibited activities. It must comply with both Belgian national law and EU competition regulations, requiring careful consideration of enforceability requirements, reasonable limitations, and adequate consideration. The agreement is essential for preserving the value of the acquired business by protecting its goodwill, customer relationships, and confidential information.
