Dunedin meat company PPCS yesterday warned shareholders of its North Island takeover target, Richmond, the entry of UK-based Bernard Matthews Ltd into the bidding war raises issues of foreign ownership of the meat industry.
The new bid is via North Meats which posted a restricted transfer notice that it intends to buy 24 million shares or 60% of the company.
Richmond said the bid was unexpected but acknowledged it had had a long relationship with another Bernard Matthews subsidiary, Advanced Foods Ltd.
