On September 10th, Ajinomoto North America, Inc. announced the acquisition of Windsor Foods for

approximately $800 million. The acquisition will enable Ajinomoto to combine its global strength in food

manufacturing with Windsor’s strong market position and distribution network throughout the US.

Following the transaction, Ajinomoto will solidify its leading position in the Asian/Ethnic frozen foods

category in the US. Like other Japanese firms, Ajinomoto is looking abroad as the domestic market

shrinks due to an aging population and a slowing economy.

Ajinomoto Expands Frozen Foods Footprint With Purchase of Windsor Foods

What We’re Reading

On September 17th, The WhiteWave Foods Company announced its agreement to acquire So Delicious®

Dairy Free from Wasserstein & Co. for approximately $195 million. The acquisition provides WhiteWave

with further penetration of its core market of plant-based food and beverages, along with the #1 plant-

based frozen dessert brand in the US. Following the acquisition of Earthbound Farms, this transaction

marks WhiteWave’s second expansion in the non-GMO category.

WhiteWave Foods Broadens Plant-Based Platform with Purchase of So Delicious

M&A activity in the food and beverage sector remained strong through the end of the summer with

several deals announced during the month of September. HW&Co. anticipates an active marketplace for

the remainder of the year as strategic and private equity buyers continue to take advantage of current

market conditions and aggressively pursue well positioned food & beverage companies. Over the past

month, the market saw notable activity from both strategic and private equity investors. On the strategic

side, Ajinomoto North America acquired Windsor Foods, while sponsor investments included JAB

Holdings’ acquisition of Einstein Noah Restaurant Group. Activity also remained strong in the “better-for-

you” segment, as WhiteWave Foods acquired So Delicious® Dairy Free, a producer of dairy-free frozen

desserts, beverages, and creamers.
