Duda picks up a couple of nicely-priced stunners in Mazovian meat market

ZM Duda, a Grąbków-based meat holding, has become the new owner of two big meat-processing companies, viz. Centrum Mięsne Makton and Centrum Mięsne Eurosmak. "By acquiring these companies, we fulfilled our promise to create a Duda Polish Meat Concern, which we made to our investors... Thanks to the transaction, we have gained control over 25% of the Mazovian regional meat market," said Maciej Duda, ZM Duda's general director. The whole acquisition process cost ZM Duda about zł.20 million, which is considered a reasonable price to pay for two companies that this year together have a combined projected income of zł.357 million and a projected profit of around zł.6 million.
