InvestIndustrial has signed an agreement to acquire TreeHouse Foods in an all-cash transaction for a total enterprise value of $2.9 billion. TreeHouse Foods is a major player in private brands snacking and beverage manufacturing, headquartered in Illinois, US. InvestIndustrial, an independently managed European investment subsidiary under the InvestIndustrial VIII group, will welcome TreeHouse Foods to its global food and beverage portfolio following the acquisition. Steve Oakland, chairman, CEO and president of TreeHouse Foods, said that the company has been executing a strategy to become a “focused snacking and beverage private brand leader with depth in categories, attractive long-term prospects and an agile operating model”. “Our agreement with InvestIndustrial, a leading European investor with a strong track record in food manufacturing and related sectors, will provide shareholders with immediate cash value, at a substantial premium,” he commented. “I am incredibly grateful to the entire TreeHouse Foods team for helping us reach this milestone, and we look forward to partnering with InvestIndustrial to position TreeHouse Foods for continued success in its next chapter.” Upon completion of the transaction, TreeHouse Foods will become a private company and its common stock will no longer be listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Andrea C Bonomi, chairman of the Industrial Advisory Board of InvestIndustrial, confirmed that TreeHouse Foods will operate independently within InvestIndustrial’s portfolio. InvestIndustrial portfolio companies will have a total of 85 manufacturing plants and 16,000 employees following the deal. “We have long admired TreeHouse Foods and have tremendous respect for Steve and the entire team, who have built a dynamic snacking and beverage leader and supply chain partner to blue-chip retail, foodservice and food-away-from-home customers across North America,” Bonomi added. “We are confident in the long-term growth opportunities in private brands and the categories where TreeHouse Foods operates, as well as the company’s ability to build on its strong foundation of leadership. We look forward to working closely with the TreeHouse Foods leadership team and employees to drive its long-term success.” The transaction has been unanimously approved by the TreeHouse Foods board of directors, and is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026, subject to shareholder approval, regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions. Jana Partners, a 10% shareholder of TreeHouse Foods common stock, has entered into a customary voting agreement to vote in favour of the transaction at the meeting of TreeHouse Foods shareholders to be held in connection with the transaction. The transaction is not subject to financing conditions. Under the terms of the deal, TreeHouse Foods shareholders will receive $22.50 per share in cash for each share of common stock owned at closing, and one non-transferable contingent value right (CVR) per common share. The CVR will provide a holder with an opportunity to receive net proceeds, if any are recovered, from ongoing litigation relating to part of TreeHouse Foods’ coffee business. The upfront cash portion of the consideration of $22.50 per common share represents an equity value of $1.2 billion, a 38% premium to TreeHouse Foods’ closing share price on 26 September – the last full trading day prior to market speculation around a transaction. In February 2014, TreeHouse Foods – along with its subsidiaries Bay Valley Foods and Sturm Foods – filed a lawsuit against Keurig Dr Pepper’s subsidiary, Keurig Green Montain, asserting claims under antitrust and unfair competition laws. It accused KGM of monopolising alleged markets for single-serve coffee brewers and single-serve coffee pods, and is seeking monetary damages, declaratory relief, injunctive relief and attorneys’ fees. In August 2020, the company’s economic experts estimated monetary damages to be in the range of $719.4 million to $1.5 billion for the antitrust claims, before trebling, and $358 million for a subset of the company's false advertising claims, without accounting for discretionary trebling by the court. The matter remains pending, with summary judgment motions fully briefed.

US President Donald Trump has directed the Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate major meatpacking companies over alleged price manipulation in the beef market, citing concerns about collusion and the impact on American ranchers. In a post on Truth Social, Trump said he had “asked the DOJ to immediately begin an investigation into the Meat Packing Companies who are driving up the price of beef through illicit collusion, price fixing and price manipulation”. He added that the move was intended to defend US cattle producers: “We will always protect our American ranchers, and they are being blamed for what is being done by Majority Foreign Owned Meat Packers, who artificially inflate prices and jeopardise the security of our Nation’s food supply.” Attorney general Pam Bondi confirmed on X that the probe was under way, stating: “Our investigation is underway! My Antitrust Division led by @AAGSlater has taken the lead in partnership with our friend @SecRollins at @USDA”. Assistant attorney general Abigail Slater, who heads the DOJ’s antitrust division, will lead the probe alongside Brooke Rollins, the US agriculture secretary. Rollins also posted on X calling for “transparency, accountability and a fair market that rewards those who actually raise and produce our beef – not the corporate middlemen gaming the system”. The announcement follows a period of sustained high beef prices in the US, with costs rising amid reduced cattle herds and strong consumer demand. The Justice Department has not disclosed which companies are under investigation. That said, according to Reuters , Tyson Foods, Cargill, JBS USA and National Beef Packing Company – which together handle the majority of US grain-fed cattle – slaughter about 85% of those that become steaks, beef roasts and other cuts of meat sold in supermarkets.

This transaction is also a strong signal of our mutual confidence in the long-term health of the US Coca-Cola system.” Following the transaction, the Coca-Cola Company has relinquished its seat on Consolidated’s board of directors, further cementing the bottler’s independent governance. Coca-Cola Consolidated also announced it would reduce the size of its existing share repurchase programme from $1 billion to $400 million, with roughly $136 million available for potential future repurchases. Henrique Braun, EVP and CEO of the Coca-Cola Company, said: “Coca-Cola Consolidated has been a valued strategic partner for well over a century. The sale of our stake is a natural evolution of our strong relationship. Both companies remain fully aligned in our shared goal of delivering beverages with speed, scale and excellence to more than 60 million consumers.”

Regenerative dairy brand Golden Hooves has unveiled its first-ever salted butter crafted from the same regeneratively farmed milk used in its range of cheeses. Developed during the Big Food Redesign Challenge, an initiative by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation and the Sustainable Food Trust, Golden Hooves’ new Salted Butter is now available through Waitrose, Booths, Ocado and independent retailers across the UK. Described as rich, creamy and fresh, with a luxurious mouthfeel and sweetness, the butter has already received attention from a number of industry award schemes. “This launch represents what Golden Hooves stands for, delicious, everyday dairy that’s good for people and the planet,” said a Golden Hooves spokesperson. “Our butter showcases how regenerative farming can deliver both premium quality and real environmental impact.” Golden Hooves Salted Butter was refined during the Big Food Redesign Challenge, which took participating brands through design, production, and retail phases to develop products that restore nature rather than deplete it. The butter’s development process examined supply chains from soil to shelf, ensuring that regenerative principles guided every stage. “The Big Food Redesign Challenge gave us the framework to demonstrate how regenerative agriculture can scale while maintaining taste and value,” the company said. “It’s about proving that quality and conscience can go hand-in-hand.” Golden Hooves Salted Butter is available in 200g retail packs, joining the brand’s growing line-up of cheeses (200g pre-packs and 2.5kg deli blocks) and crackers (80g packs).

By 2050, feeding a global population will demand a transformation in food production – one that maintains soil health, biodiversity and economic resilience. A key solution is regenerative agriculture, something that is gaining momentum across Europe, as demand for sustainably sourced food rises and supply chain issues increase. Candy Siekmann, director of climate smart Ag origination at ADM, explains how collaborations can help farmers implement sustainable practices and bring regenerative agriculture to their farms and help create a resilient global food system. By 2050, the world’s population is expected to reach 10 billion – presenting one of the most pressing challenges of our time: how to build a resilient food system that can feed a growing world. Meeting this demand requires a transformation in food production – ensuring that our soils remain fertile and our farms economically resilient for generations to come. Regenerative agriculture offers a pathway to this transformation. It is an outcome-based farming approach that protects and improves soil health, biodiversity and water resources and increases value for farmers. It encompasses practices like reduced tillage, cover cropping and responsibly managing inputs – grounded in the understanding that no two farms are alike. Momentum is building across Europe, with regenerative agriculture increasingly recognised as a vital strategy for building a more resilient food system. Consumers are helping to drive demand, with 54% of consumers in EMEA more likely to purchase foods and beverages from companies that practice regenerative agriculture and 64% of global shoppers actively seeking out products from companies that support farmers and local communities. But scaling regenerative practices will require something just as essential as the soil itself: partnership. From agronomic support to food manufacturers, strong collaboration across the value chain is essential to connect farmers with the financial resources, technical expertise and market access they need to adopt and sustain regenerative practices. It all starts with the farmer Farmers have always been stewards of the land, striving to do what is right for their livelihoods, their families and their communities. Supporting them means meeting them where they are, recognising the diversity of their operations. There are important structural and cultural differences between farming in Europe and North America. These shape how regenerative agriculture practices are adopted in each region. In Europe, farms are often more diverse, with cropping systems that vary widely – from smaller, family-run operations in the west to expensive agricultural holdings in the east. In contrast, US farms tend to be larger and more specialised, often focused on a narrower range of crops. European crop rotations have a stronger emphasis on winter crops, such as conola, wheat, barley and rye, compared to spring crops like corn, soybeans and oats that dominate in the US. These distinctions influence not only the agronomic strategies farmers use, but also how they tailor regenerative practices to their local soil. Despite these differences, one thing remains constant: farmers don’t want to do it alone. They value practical support, trusted guidance and a clear sense of how new practices will benefit their operations. That’s why solid agronomic advice and hands-on training need to be the cornerstone of any regenerative agriculture programme. In Poland, for example, ADM works with Biospheres to provide a full training programme for farmers. The journey for participating farmers starts with on-farm assessments followed by regular training sessions on topics such as sustainable farm economics and soil fertility. Beyond training, such programmes encourage collaboration and knowledge sharing. Field visits and peer-to-peer exchanges provide forums to share experiences, explore new techniques and build a network of support rooted in practical knowledge. Data-driven collaboration As consumer demand grows for more regenerative farmed products, verifying the use of practices further up the supply chain and measuring the impact is essential. Technologies like data analytics, satellite imaging and other innovations provide farmers with valuable insights to monitor their progress and refine their on-farm practices. Working with technical partners is also important. These partnerships are designed to benefit farmers as much as the wider supply chain. Growers receive regular feedback on key performance indicators, including yield, empowering them to benchmark their progress and make data-informed decisions. The power of upstream partnerships One of the most critical needs in scaling regenerative agriculture is better access to financial incentives that give farmers confidence to invest. In the agricultural value chain, we must play a central role in connecting farmers with major global food companies, which are essential partners in driving sustainable practices and delivering value to consumers. The road ahead As regenerative agriculture continues to gain momentum across Europe, one thing is clear. No single actor can drive this transformation alone. Achieving meaningful change requires strong, cross-sector partnerships built on trust, shared purpose and practical collaboration. And at the heart of this movement are the farmers – scaling regenerative agriculture begins with empowering them.

The functional and fortified beverage sector is no longer a niche space, but one that is driving mainstream demand as consumers increasingly seek products that support health, convenience and lifestyle without sacrificing taste and indulgence. With functional beverages now achieving margins higher than traditional drinks, it is a category that forward-thinking investors will want to be a part of. Ivanka Skrypnichenko, Tetra Pak’s global category manager, explains why there has never been a better time to invest in nutritional and functional beverages. Opportunities for untapped growth in the food and beverage sector are rare, but when they do arise, they demand swift action. Functional beverage products reached a global volume of 17.4 billion litres in 2023, and the market shows no sign of slowing. The European market for meal replacement products alone is projected to grow by over 7% between 2024 and 2033, to $3.91 billion. Fortified products and food supplements are no longer just the preserve of athletes – consumers across generations are choosing them for immunity, cognition, digestive support and more. Beyond that, the boundaries of products in this category keep expanding – functional drinks provide nutrients, fuel with energy for a day, replace or complement meals and offer flavour/texture experiences. This reflects a broader shift: today’s consumer is not defined by age or lifestyle, but by mindset. Studies show that over half of global consumers say they are mindful of their well-being and actively seek products that make wellness-related claims. As these health-focused consumers become more interested in transforming their lifestyles, they are turning to meal replacements, special nutrition products and protein shakes that supplement their nutritional needs. The evolving landscape of functional and fortified products presents a significant opportunity for beverage manufacturers to differentiate and grow. Our experience has shown us that success will lie in identifying unmet needs, understanding evolving consumer priorities and exploring how technology can enable new product formats and experiences. Those able to navigate these shifts stand to gain a meaningful advantage in a fast-moving category. The profit potential The business case for food supplements and nutritionally enhanced products is stronger than ever. Research suggests a surge of interest for food supplements and products with nutritional benefits: 74% of consumers look for active claims when purchasing food and drink, and 88% are willing to pay more for healthier options. This demand brings an increase not just in potential revenue, but in potential profitability, with functional beverages achieving margins up to an impressive 800% higher per litre than traditional beverage categories. For the F&B industry, this presents a compelling opportunity to enhance both growth and return on investment by delivering products that offer clear, tangible value to health-driven customers. Innovation is key Consumers are increasingly drawn to products that support, among others, energy, hydration, focus and improved cognition. To meet these wellbeing-focused expectations, producers are innovating to deliver nutrients without compromising product taste, texture or stability, creating a dynamic space for formulation and packaging advancements. Technologies like precision micronutrient dosing are enhancing accuracy and consistency, especially in protein-enriched products where ingredient behaviour can be complex. Success in this space requires investment and focus on proteins that are pure, soluble, neutral-tasting tasting and stable, key to achieving mainstream appeal. But while nutritional value, convenience and enjoyment are all key factors, they must be tailored to the market. Our teams have found that tastes and preferences in different geographical locations play a role in consumer adoption. For example, customers in Asia often prefer thicker, smoother and creamier textures, whereas European consumers generally prefer more natural, less processed textures. Meanwhile, in America, sweeter and indulgent textures are more popular. For RTD products, an enjoyable mouthfeel is often an important factor in whether consumers adopt a product, and so, it should be considered as important as ingredient and flavour combinations. Manufacturers can use science and technical expertise to formulate products with exact flavour profiles and characteristics needed to capture the attention of individual markets. For businesses, getting the sensory profile right means reducing trial-and-error costs and increasing repeat purchases. Convenience is just as important and has become a decisive factor, particularly for individuals navigating increasingly active and fast-paced routines. Products must integrate seamlessly into consumers’ daily routines. This means formats that are pre-dosed, portable, easy to consume on the go and require minimal or no preparation and clean-up. Whether it’s a protein-enriched drink consumed post-workout, an energy boosting snack between meetings or a nutritional beverage enjoyed during a commute, convenience is a key factor. The more intuitively a product fits into existing habits, the greater its potential for repeat purchase and long-term brand loyalty. Emerging formats like ready-to-drink solutions are designed to meet and exceed these expectations by making daily nutrition accessible for everyone. As competition in the food supplement and nutrition market intensifies, differentiation is essential. Winning products will combine scientifically supported benefits with convenient, consumer-friendly formats. From concept to commercialisation As demand for nutritional drinks accelerates, the opportunity for brands willing to innovate is both clear and commercially compelling. Success will require not just a winning idea – it must be supported by precise formulation and a nuanced understanding of consumer needs across markets. Partnering with a company with a strong heritage in product development can help reduce the risks of entering a burgeoning market. For forward-looking brands, the chance to lead this growing category is ready to be taken.

Founded in 1993, Sant Aniol has always operated with a focus on sustainability, striving to preserve nature and make the world a better place to live. Among the many innovations introduced are its striking PET bottles, inspired by the volcanic rocks of the Garrotxa region and produced by an EBS 8 KL Ergon stretch-blow moulder equipped with the ReduxAir system to reduce energy consumption.   Bottles with a volcanic spirit Sant Aniol PET containers feature a distinctive and elegant design that conveys the unique qualities of the water whose spring is located within the Natural Park of Garrotxa, at a depth of more than 120 metres, in a place characterised by sedimented lava and volcanic rocks that give the water its purity and excellent qualities. SMI solution for Sant Aniol Food companies are increasingly committed to the green and digital transition, placing the well-being of consumers and employees at the centre of their production processes. For Sant Aniol, the environment is a primary asset to be safeguarded, and to achieve this goal, the company relies on next-generation technologies that maximise energy efficiency. Building on the supply of its first-generation SR 8 stretch-blow moulder 15 years ago, Sant Aniol has once again turned to SMI for the installation of the new EBS 8 KL Ergon model, designed for the bottling line of natural water in 0.33-litre, 0.5-litre and 1.5-litre PET containers. Environmental benefits The EBS 8 KL Ergon stretch-blow moulder, installed at the Girona plant, is fitted with stretch-blow moulds equipped with the special 'ReduxAir' bottom, which, through special technical and design measures, allows the air between the outer walls of the bottle and the surface of the mould to be released more quickly, making it possible to produce rPET/PET containers with lower air pressures, especially: 0.33-litre containers at 15 bar air pressure 0.5-litre containers at 17 bar air pressure 1.5-litre containers at 25 bar air pressure This makes it possible to reduce the use of a high-pressure air compressor, significantly lowering electricity consumption. Sant Aniol line Energy efficiency benefits The EBS 8 KL Ergon stretch-blow moulder supplied by SMI is equipped with an energy counter with a digital LCD display, which, through the control of energy consumption, enables the optimisation of the operational efficiency of the plant. The counter installed on the machine is used to record and display, alternately, electricity consumption, voltage, current and power over a given period. Thanks to these devices, the solutions supplied by SMI can leverage the services offered by the platform SmyIoT, an interactive database that remotely collects, verifies, processes and enhances all operating parameters of the plant, both at the level of individual machines and across the entire production line. This allows users to improve operational efficiency and energy performance across all processes, schedule maintenance interventions and reduce overall production costs.   Energy: Saving benefits The EBS 8 KL Ergon stretch-blow moulder is characterised by the presence of an innovative preform heating oven that is extremely compact and equipped with an aluminium diffuser that ensures optimal temperature control to prevent overheating. The energy costs for the production of bottles are also reduced thanks to the presence of energy-efficient IR lamps and heat-reflecting panels equipped with ceramic elements. The stretch-blow moulding module is equipped with a high-efficiency two-stage air recovery system, called AirMaster, which recovers the air from the blowing circuit and thus ensures a significant reduction in compressed air consumption and significant energy savings, thanks to the reduced use of the high-pressure compressor.
