The 2011 Run-Down

As you know, 2011 has been a pretty interesting year for the food industry, with the landscape significantly changing. Some of the major changes include:

• 2 Sisters Food Group buys Northern Foods and Brookes Avana
• Hain Celestial acquires Daniels Group
• The Findus Group acquires more of the seafood market
• Mystery bidder shows interest in Greencore
• Tulip Ltd acquires Parkam Foods
• Princes Ltd acquires Premier Foods' canning business

So what's going to happen in 2012?

• How far will the break-up of Premier Foods go?
• Who will eventually own Greencore?
• Will we see any Middle East/Asian businesses buying British food companies?
• Will another food giant fall?
