AMR International supports Beringea's acquisition of Donatantonio

The increase in foreign travel and eating out as part of today’s lifestyle has helped to widen the range of tastes demanded by consumers in their food.

Healthy eating, organic food and fair-trade food have all enabled companies to carve out niches to meet the increasingly discerning consumer taste and demand for the finest cuisine. Donatantonio is a family owned business that imports and distributes Mediterranean food, including pasta, tomatoes and olive oil, in the UK.

AMR International supported Beringea Ltd with commercial due diligence on the transaction. Our in-depth analysis of a very niche industry confirmed that Donatantonio had a strong industry reputation and market standing. AMR also assessed the opportunity for Donatantonio to grow with additional foodstuffs which could be added to their portfolio. Following AMR’s recommendations, Beringea acquired Donatantonio in a BIMBO deal.

“AMR not only completed a detailed analysis of the sector in a very short timeframe, but also provided the company with a number of high-quality business leads to help management grow the business further.” Jamie Kennell, Beringea Ltd
