By GlobalDataAn official spokesperson for Mareven said: “Currently, Ukraine remains an attractive market for both companies which have brands with great potential here.”
Technocom, based in Kharkov, remains the largest Ukrainian producer of instant food in Ukraine and holds about 95% of the market.
Mareven and Nissin joined forces last year when the Japanese firm bought a 33.5% stake in Angleside, the Russian group’s holding company.
