Na endlich. Nach erfolgreicher Expansion in Ungarn und Polen im Geflügelsegment, expandiert LDC nun weiter im britischen Geflügelmarkt (eine kleine Präsenz besteht schon im Bio-Geflügel Bereich). LDC übernimmt die Mehrheit an Green Label mit 700 Mitarbeitern und 250 Tsd. qm Landwirtschaftsfläche (hohe Eigenversorgungsquote). Die Familie Buchanan bleibt an Bord. Das klingt sehr gut. Die Aktie ist mit 5% im Plus. Vielleicht werden nun auch britische Investoren aufmerksam auf die Aktie. Eine Bewertungsdisparität zu Cranswick besteht mit Sicherheit.
