Group strategy and financial objectives
Group strategyAcomo focuses exclusively on food products. The group sources, trades, processes and distributes natural food raw materials. Acomo endeavours to optimize the creation of value by and within its subsidiaries, while remaining within manageable risk levels related to the global trading activities and the financial capabilities of the Group. It seeks to grow and diversify its activities in the trade and distribution of (preferably) niche commodities for the food industry.
To achieve these goals, two parallel efforts are actively being pursued:
- Organic growth within the operating subsidiaries, by diversifying the product assortment and by strengthening ties with suppliers and customers worldwide. We encourage people to take responsibility and to develop new initiatives, leading eventually to the creation of new departments inside the subsidiaries
- Partnerships and mergers with, and acquisitions of other profitable trading companies with a successful management track record, contributing to the earnings per share of the Company. We are looking in particular at trading companies in niche and fragmented markets where the Group's trading and financial expertise can provide added value for growth. Our selection criteria are strict because we do not want to compromise the high profitability of the existing activities and the other achievements and values of the Group.
