Kolomensky, the largest bread producer in Russia by revenue, has acquired the St. Petersburg-based ready meal company Prodmaster.
Prodmaster manufactures culinary products based on around 1,500 recipes for leading federal retailers, including Perekrestok and VkusVill. The company also supplied prepared meals for the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF).
The deal covers a 6,000 square meter production facility in St. Petersburg as well as Prodmaster’s entire range of ready-to-eat meals. According to Kolomensky’s owner, Alexey Tulupov, in a comment to RBC, the production of ready-made food will become a separate and independent business direction for the holding. The financial terms of the deal have not been disclosed, but analysts estimate the asset’s value at between 1.8 and 2 billion rubles.
