By just-food.com | 20 October 2009

Shares in Icelandic seafood group Alfesca have been delisted following the successful conclusion of a takeover bid from a consortium of shareholders, led by Lur Berri.

The company's shares were removed from the main market of the Nasdaq OMX Iceland after the shareholder consortium took control of 99.43% of the group's initial share capital and all of the group's voting rights.

A spokesperson for the smoked salmon to balini and spreads maker told just-food that the change of ownership would have "no impact" on the company's operations.

"It is business as usual," the spokesperson commented.
