The Food Industry recovers from Inflation Shock: Time for a Sector M&A Update
The food industry has digested the inflation shock: the fierce price wars between retailers and producers have lost their edge and producers once again have more transparency about their business, their margins and their prospects. This makes it possible for many to think about M&A options again, whether in terms of selling companies or as buyers looking for suitable targets.
In this episode of ‘What’s up, Corporate Finance?’, Capitalmind Investec Managing Partner Jürgen Schwarz and Director Florian Ismer talk to financial editor Michael Hedtstück about the potential, challenges and outlook for the food M&A sector.
The key questions:
Who are the ‘early movers’ currently in the food deal pipeline?
Who is available on the buyer side?
What are the sticking points in due diligence and value creation of food assets?
And what is the market outlook for 2025?
