Stork Food Systems intends to acquire Nijal
Stork Food Systems and Nijal signed a letter
of intent last week for the acquisition of Nijal Technologie Alimentaire by
Stork.
Based in France, Nijal manufactures machines for processing of meat that
are complementary to those of Stork Food Systems.
The company achieved a turnover of €6 million in 2005 with 30 employees. It
has offices in France, Italy, Spain and the USA. Stork's worldwide sales and
marketing organisation will open new markets and create new opportunities for
Nijal innovative machines. The acquisition is expected to take place before the
end of 2006.
After the
Townsend
acquisition earlier this year, the planned acquisition of
Nijal represents an further step
in the implementation of
Stork Food
Systems' strategy of strengthening its
position as a system supplier in the field of
further processing of meat. The planned acquisition
will also offer good opportunities for further growth of Nijal.
The portfolio of Nijal consists of innovative equipment for further
processing of meat; 65% of sales comes from machines developed in the past 3
years.
