By GlobalDataThe demerger was first agreed this summer, bringing to an end tensions between the company’s two major shareholders. Both sides had accused the other of breaking an agreement to limit their stakes in the business and mediation talks failed to resolve the conflict.
Following the division, Cloetta Fazer’s managing director and CEO Jesper Åberg has been appointed as managing director of Fazer Konfektyr.
The Cloetta-related activities previously conducted within Cloetta Fazer will continue in the new Cloetta.
