Sprehe makes fresh and frozen meat products at 12 sites, supported by a workforce of 3,500.
German poultry processor Sprehe is acquiring a local production plant from NestlA(C).
In a statement yesterday (24 November), the Swiss food giant said Sprehe would take over the site in Conow in the region of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern from January.
Earlier this year, NestlA(C) said it was in aEURoeintensive negotiationsaEUR to sell the Conow plant, including the on-site workforce.
Approximately 70 jobs at the facility will be retained as a result of the purchase.
In a statement, Albert Sprehe, managing partner of Sprehe, said: aEURoeWe look forward to manufacturing our products together with the workforce in the future, successfully operating the site and growing together.aEURA
The Conow facility produces items under the Maggi and Garden Gourmet brands. Production of the Garden Gourmet Vuna faux tuna, Maggi liquid bouillon and Maggi Texicana salsa will be relocated to other, unnamed European sites.
NestlA(C) has 17 locations in Germany, including more than ten production sites, and employs over 6,000 people.
In March, alongside the announcement of the sale of the Conow site, NestlA(C) also outlined plans to close its Neuss plant in the state of North Rhine-Westphalia by mid-2026.
In both cases, the company attributed the downsizingAto aEURoedeclining volumes and overcapacityaEUR, driven by growing aEURoeprice sensitivityaEUR among consumers and aEURoerising costs.aEUR
The Neuss facility produces Thomy oil, mayonnaise, and mustard in various packaging formats and employs around 145 people.
In April last year, the company announced plans to cut dozens of jobs at its German head office in Frankfurt.
