Total Produce looks to expand

Total Produce is considering further acquisitions in both Europe and North America to expand the company and remains on track to meet its stated earnings targets for this year.

At the Dublin-based international fruit distribution group’s AGM yesterday, management told shareholders that the business is “continuing to actively pursue acquisition opportunities to further expand the group, both in Europe and North America”.

Chief executive Rory Byrne said that the board views acquisitions as the primary way by which to grow the company.
