Canadaâs billionaire Weston family may look for deals in its namesake food business after restoring its profitability, according to Scotia Capital Inc.
George Weston Ltd., the Toronto-listed holding company that controls supermarket chain Loblaw Companies Ltd., could either bulk up or sell Weston Foods, its smallest business unit, Scotia Capital analyst Patricia Baker said Thursday in a report to investors.
Weston Foods, which makes bread, doughnuts and other baked goods under a variety of brands, contributes an estimated four per cent of George Westonâs revenue and âthe company has stated that this business would eventually become larger via M&A or could possibly be divested,â Baker wrote after hosting a call with Richard Dufresne, George Westonâs president and chief financial officer.
