Le Duff group-owned bakery company Bridor has acquired its Netherlands-based peer Pandriks.
France-based Bridor described Pandriks as a manufacturer of organic and “artisanal-inspired” bakery products. Financial terms were not disclosed.
Pandriks, set up in 2012, makes organic bread sold under private label as part of retailers’ in-store bake-off ranges. It also sells bread under its Slooow brand.
The company has two production facilities: one in Meppel in the Netherlands and another in Fulda in Germany.
Pandriks, headquartered in Meppel, has 400 employees. It had an annual turnover of “over €150m” ($159.4m) in 2023, Bridor said in a statement.
