Atlantic pursues fresh acquisition in western Europe

Author: Agencies

Croatia’s Atlantic Grupa is working on an acquisition in western Europe as its room for growth in the former Yugoslavia becomes limited, founder and Chief Executive Emil Tedeschi told Reuters in an interview.

Tedeschi said the price would be in the double-digit millions of euros, without elaborating.

“Because our brands have such high market share here locally, room for growth is limited,” he said. “We are looking for growth in northwest Europe – organic and inorganic.”

Tedeschi said Atlantic could also explore the possibility of bidding for arch-rival Podravka PODR.ZA if the Croatian government were to reduce its 25 percent golden share.

And he said his company may develop a new sports bar for US multinational Herbalife (HLF.N) after a previous 10-year contract came to an end, putting a dent in Atlantic’s sales and profits this year.
