AAK has signed an agreement to acquire the Turkish frying oil brand Frita from Unilever. Frita, a market leader in the frying oil segment in Turkey, covers a significant part of the local Food Service market. The brand had revenues of approximately SEK 75 million in 2013. The acquisition should be seen as a natural addition to AAK Turkey’s existing product portfolio and is an add-on to the Unipro acquisition during the third quarter of 2013. “Frita has a very good reputation in Turkey and AAK Turkey already covers 80 percent of the Frita customers with our current bakery distribution”, says Torben Friis Lange, President Asia, CIS and Middle East. “By acquiring Frita, we will extend AAK Turkey’s product offerings.” The impact on AAK’s operating profit is expected to be very limited.
