PROFILE |
 |
Koninklijke ("Royal") Wessanen's tree spreads its branches across the hemispheres. The international food company's holdings include Tree of Life, a leading distributor of natural and specialty foods in the US. It also owns a European private-label cereal maker, a poultry processor in Thailand, and a convenience foods business in Europe. The company has sold its US dairy units (Marigold Foods and Crowley Foods) but has put on hold plans to divest its European dairy business, including leading cheese maker Leerdammer, because of hoof and mouth disease concerns. Koninklijke Wessanen intends to buy more health foods comanies. It sold its 35% stake in Italian spirits company Campari prior to Campari's IPO.
