Mexican food processor Sigma Alimentos is revisiting a plan for an initial public offering of shares, with plans to raise as much as MXN18.5bn (US$1bn) in September.

The company, which is part of Grupo Industrial Alfa, is seeking to place around 15% of its equity and will price the shares at 23 to 29 pesos each, according to the prospectus. The San Pedro-based firm aims to register the shares on the Mexican stock exchange on 28 September, but said the listing will depend on market conditions.
