Tayto (NI) acquires Golden Wonder group

TAYTO GROUP, the Northern Ireland-based snack foods business has formally acquired the British-based Golden Wonder snack group.

The deal sees the Tandragee-based company which has no relation with the C&C-owned Tayto brand in the Republic take over Golden Wonder's manufacturing facility in Scunthorpe and its brands, which include its eponymous crisps, Golden Lights and Ringos.

The Tayto Group was selected as Golden Wonder's preferred bidder earlier this month.
