Ebro Puleva today (23 July) confirmed to just-food that it has not received a bid valued at EUR400m (US$637m) from a government-controlled savings bank for its sugar business.
Contrary to local media reports, Spain’s largest listed food group said that it has not been approached by Cajas de Ahorros de Castilla y Leon.
“The reports that we have received a bid of EUR400m from this business are inaccurate,” a spokesperson for Ebro told just-food.
