Kamps AG
 PROFILE
Kamps AG is the breadbasket of Europe. With more than 2,000 German and Dutch craft bakeries (small bakeries that make their own products) the company is Europe's largest industrial baking group. However, its retail bakeries segment accounts for about 75% of revenues, selling through grocery stores and self-service venues such as convenience stores and gas stations. Kamps has gobbled up market share by acquiring the biggest bread makers and sellers in Germany (including the Wendeln Group), France, and The Netherlands. It operates on a smaller scale in other European countries. The Wendeln Group purchase gave Kamps the popular Golden Toast and Lieken Urkorn brands. Management owns about 15% of Kamps.
