UK sweet firm bought by Turkish confectionery group
UK confectionery manufacturer Dexters has been acquired by the Turkish confectionery group Bebeto for an undisclosed sum in January.
Bebeto’s UK commercial director Paul Simpson said the acquisition demonstrated the Turkish owned firm’s commitment to the UK market.
“The acquisition demonstrates that we’re serious about delivering growth for both the Bebeto and Dexters brands in the UK and this activity is a key part of our strategic plan,” said Simpson.
“The Dexters’ confectionery product range complements the Bebeto offer and will broaden our customer base and provide access to new market channels thus enabling us to grow our share of the UK confectionery market,” he added.
