Tyrrell's Potato Chips offered for sale

Tyrrells, a Potato Chips Manufacturer in the United Kingdom, is reportedly being put up for sale for about £100 million (~ USD 150 million).

Langholm Capital, a private equity firm, has owned the Herefordshire-based business for the last five years after buying it from potato farmer William Chase in a £40m deal.

According to analysts, Tyrrells is likely to draw interest from American food giant Kellogg’s, the Japanese snacks firm Calbee, and Tangerine, the Blackpool-based confectionery company that owns Butterkist popcorn.

Other potential bidders could include Germany’s Intersnack, which bought KP Snacks last year.
