Major Chocolate Player Enters the Nuts Space
28 Aug 2015 | Barry Callebaut
La Morella nuts, the artisanal nut specialist within the Barry Callebaut Group, offers a wide range of nuts products: from Spanish hazelnuts and almonds to Australian macadamias and Texas pecan. The company, with headquarter in Reus and two plants in Reus and Castellvell del Camp, was acquired by the Barry Callebaut Group in 2012. Through the acquisition of la Morella nuts, Barry Callebaut became a European leader in the nut products business. Philippe Janvier, VP of Specialties & Decorations at Barry Callebaut discusses the rationale behind the acquisition.
