COFCO eyes deals for sugar, wine overseas
China National Cereals, Oils and Foodstuffs Corp, known as COFCO, will focus its overseas acquisition drive in the wine and sugar sectors to meet growing demand at home, a senior company official has said.
Wan Zaotian, vice-president of the State-owned food-processing giant, said on Thursday that the company will continue to expand through sugar and wine-related overseas mergers and acquisitions.
"These two areas are easier for acquisitions compared with grain-related mergers," he said.
