”Joining TOMRA provides BBC Technologies and our customers the perfect platform to further enhance our technology and service offerings in all corners of the globe. As a company built by growers for growers, we respect TOMRA’s global market leadership which has been achieved through continuous innovation and partnership with their customers, consistent with the principles that have fuelled our own growth at BBC Technologies”, says Head of BBC Technologies Geoff Furniss.

TOMRA will pay a consideration corresponding to a value of NZD 66.9m, free of cash and interest-bearing debt. TOMRA will pay the purchase price in cash, and the transaction will be financed through existing drawing rights.
Closing of the transaction is expected to take place end of February 2018.
