A few items we've come across today:

• Procter & Gamble says they are planning on more lawsuits against private-label imitators. We reported on this previously in this post.
• Metro, the German supermarket giant, is planning to enter the Pakistani market, with stores in Islamabad/Rawalpindi, Lahore and Karachi.
• Walmex, Wal-Mart's Mexican division, announced that it will open 120 new stores in 2006.
