Richard Oetker, Dr Oetker’s chairman, said: “We are delighted to have the opportunity to strengthen our market position in Mexico by acquiring a successful family company. Grupo Rexal’s products are an ideal addition to our portfolio and an especially good fit in the area of baking as well as with our strategy and core expertise.”
Dr Oetker entered Mexico when it acquired Mexican dessert and gelatin dessert producer D’Gari in 2015.
Financial details of the deal, which came into effect yesterday (1 June), were not disclosed.
