Deal details

The transaction consists of the sale of 100% of the shares of Fabrilacteos Cía. Ltda. (“Fabrilacteos”) to Estrid S.A. (“Estridsa”).

Fabrilacteos is a company with more than 40 years of history, based in Quito, dedicated to the production of impulse ice creams that are sold through the traditional trade channel.
