Fragmented Market provides opportunities in European Food Ingredients M&A

November 14, 2022

Oghma Partners is pleased to share the release of its review of the Global Ingredients Market reviewing market size and growth prospects as well as key player with a specific drill down into M&A activity in the food ingredients space in Europe over the last 10+ years. Our overview is that, despite headwinds, given the still highly fragmented nature of the industry we expect to see continued consolidation up and down the scale of transaction values. Exit multiples may be off their peak but we see food ingredients valuation retaining their premium over general food businesses due to higher margins, superior pricing power and the businesses continuing round of innovation.
