Hilton agrees to purchase 50% shareholding in leading vegetarian manufacturer, Dalco Food B.V.

 

 

Hilton Food Group plc ("Hilton"), the leading specialist international food packing business supplying major food retailers in Europe and Australia, is pleased to announce that, subject to clearance from the Dutch competition authority, it has agreed to purchase a 50% shareholding in Dalco Food B.V.

"This agreement represents an exciting opportunity for Hilton to broaden its offering in a growing segment of the market and meet our customers' demands for Hilton to supply them with a range of innovative, high quality vegetarian products. We look forward to seeing the positive effects of our tried and tested business model on this relationship, which will be supported by our flexible and versatile approach to meeting local requirements."

"We are pleased to have signed this joint venture agreement with Hilton and look forward to the benefits and expertise that this brings to our business and that we can bring to Hilton's business.
