OC&C Provide Buy-Side Support to Valeo in Acquisition of I.D.C. Holding

Congratulations to Valeo Food Group – a Bain Capital backed company – on their acquisition of I.D.C. Holding. OC&C provided buy-side support to Valeo to support this deal.

Valeo Food Group, formed in 2010, is a leading producer of quality sweets, treats and snacks. With a portfolio of 80 brands, Valeo is one of the fastest growing food groups in Europe, with revenues in excess of €1.5 billion. Valeo Food Group was acquired by Bain Capital in 2021.

I.D.C. Holding produces as wide range of branded wafer, biscuit, sugar confectionery and seasonal chocolate products, and is a natural fit with Valeo’s portfolio. This acquisition will form a cornerstone for Valeo’s operations in the Eastern Europe market, and supports their ambitions to become a truly international enterprise.

We wish Valeo Food Group, Bain Capital and I.D.C. Holding continued success.
