Acquired by

NACTAROME GROUP

UNITED KINGDOM Food Processing / Ingredients EV 100M - 350M GBP

Context

Nactarome Group agreed to acquire Claremont Ingredients Ltd. from THG Nutrition, a subsidiary of THG PLC, in a strategic bolt-on enhancing its United Kingdom operations and sports nutrition foothold. Transaction facts outline a full ownership transfer of the flavour specialist, aligning with Nactarome's aggressive M&A playbook of tuck-in acquisitions to broaden capabilities.

Timing capitalizes on booming demand for performance ingredients, enabling cross-pollination of production know-how, analytical tools, and global networks—particularly strengthening Nactarome's UK presence amid sector tailwinds. Post-deal objectives prioritize collaborative R&D for clean-label breakthroughs, agility in trend response, and expanded portfolio value for shared clients, fostering mutual growth trajectories.
