Panealba-Campiello, an Italian manufacturer of baked goods, has acquired biscuit producer Artebianca Natura e Tradizione for an undisclosed sum.
Lucca-based Artebianca has until now been majority-owned by local private-equity firm Alto Partners through its Alto Capital III fund.
Panealba-Campiello, based in Cherasco in north-west Italy, is controlled by the Tesio family and sells its products in the Italian retail channel. It also has a presence abroad.
The company’s products include speciality Italian baked snacks such as crostini and grissini.
It merged with Campiello after it bought the local biscuit business in 2008.
