2 Sisters buys Vion’s red meat and poultry businesses
2 Sisters Food Group bought Vion’s UK poultry and red meat businesses for an undisclosed sum, last March.
Ranjit Boparan, chief executive of 2 Sisters, said the acquisition would help meet growing demand from its poultry customers and diversify the company’s offering to include red meat.
“They [Vion] have faced uncertainty and tough trading in recent months, but today’s acquisition secures a viable future,” he said. “With the majority of the operations being in Scotland and Wales, we are delighted that the Scottish and Welsh governments are supportive of this deal and we look forward to working with them and developing a sustainable future for these businesses.”
