Snacks International is owned by another private-equity firm, IK Investment Partners, which acquired it from family owners in 2010.

At the time of that deal, Snacks International claimed to be France’s market leader in the segment with a 60% share.

In a filing to regulators, Apax said it had no presence in apéritif biscuits and crackers.

“The operation does not raise any competition issues or contribute to the creation or strenghtening of a dominant position in the markets in question.”
