NIBC M&A advises Gilde in acquisition of Johma

Uniq Plc, the UK listed convenience food group, has announced that it has reached agreement on the proposed sale of its Johma Business Unit to Gilde Equity Management, a Netherlands based private equity investor.

Johma is a well-known Dutch producer of chilled prepared salads and freshly prepared and pre-packed sandwiches with consolidated revenues of some EUR 80m. Gilde also owns Hamal Signature in Belgium, the leading salad producer in Belgium, which was already acquired from Uniq in 2006.

NIBC M&A acted as sole financial advisor to Gilde.
