Commenting on the deail, Amcor managing director Ray Kingsbury said: “Bakewise Brands today offers a portfolio of 400 products and 65 years of combined bakery experience, and it is a trusted bakery solutions provider offering a variety of branded and private label programs to premier retail and food service operators throughout the United States, Canada and Caribbean”.

Yamazaki Baking was established in 1948 and offers bread, confectionery, prepared rice and side dishes such as jams and desserts. The company operates around the world including through franchises. In 1991, the company established Vie de France Yamazaki to expand its business in North America. With its latest acquisition, Yamazaki Baking is seeking further development and growth across the USA through premium bread products.
