The Netherlands Authority for Consumers and Markets (ACM) has approved the proposed acquisition of Noordhoek by Royal A-ware. Noordhoek will thus become part of Royal A-ware. Noordhoek's range is complementary to that of Royal A-ware; Noordhoek is a specialist in the field of grated cheese and offers this in different forms than Royal A-ware currently does. In addition, both organisations are active in other markets.
