Acquisition of Deli XL Rationale for the acquisition: • Objective: to internationalise Bidvest’s foodservice interests • Deli XL delivers: • Geographic diversification into Continental Europe • Market shares : • 13% of overall Dutch market segment but 46% of Institutional segment • 4% of overall Belgium market but 10% of Institutional & Catering segment • Good basis for organic and acquisitive European expansion • Access to volume (extra 34 000 customers) • Deli XL background: • Є819m turnover, but trading margins currently less than 1% • Sub-optimal business structure • Benefits of recent restructuring available to Bidvest
Acquisition of Deli XL • Deli XL turnaround strategy (improve margins from 1% to 2-3% in 3 years): • Optimisation of existing state-of-the-art infrastructure • Renegotiation of unprofitable contracts; optimisation of client mix • Rationalisation & optimisation of product range • Implementation of Bidvest philosophy – support, expectations & accountability • Benefits of focused purchasing to both Deli XL and 3663
