France: Champagne C�r�ales, Nourricia and EMC2 are creating a joint holding company, which will control the shares that every part will hold in its subsidiaries after the transformation. That will give the possibility to the Company to be a majority where each part was not able to be as individuals. It is the case in particular for Nutrixo and Malteurop

Champagne C�r�ales is the leading cereal group in Europe in term of collect. With a staff of 1500, the group has a turnover of near one billion Euros. The group pursues the diversification of its activities throughout its transformation network so as to ensure its farmers the best possible outlets for their crops, in spite of the uncertainties of the markets, agricultural policies, and business negotiations world-wide.
