Clairfield advises Bramble Foods on its sale to LDC

Bramble Foods is a manufacturer and distributor of fine foods, supplying into a national customer base of farm shops, garden centres, independent retailers and holiday parks across the gift, tourism and leisure markets. Bramble manufactures and supplies over 2,000 high-quality products ranging from preserves, pickles, chutneys and sauces to cakes, biscuits, confectionery, hampers and seasonal goods.

Clairfield have been working with the shareholders on their succession plans for a number of years, which culminated in LDC investing for a significant minority stake.

LDC’s backing will enable the management team to consolidate its market-leading position by supporting further organic growth and investment in Bramble’s in-house manufacturing capabilities, along with the targeting of complementary business acquisitions across the supply chain.
