Podravka underwent a restructuring of its own business last year, which saw it line up assets for sale.

The group’s bakery and beverage busineses are to be offloaded, as well as part of its frozen food divison.

In February, Podravka said it planned to axe 340 jobs as part of a redundancy programme. Employees affected work in positions within meat processing unit Danica, as well as the Podravka parent company itself.
