OC&C supports Ambienta-owned Nactarome to acquire TasteConnection

We are pleased to congratulate Nactarome and Ambienta on the successful acquisition of TasteConnection. Nactarome Group (“Nactarome”), backed by the sustainability-focused European PE investor Ambienta SGR SpA, has acquired TasteConnection, a UK-based manufacturer of tailored and customised flavouring solutions in seasonings, provenanced ingredients blends, flavours and culinary products.

The acquisition of TasteConnection solidifies the position of Nactarome as a leading European mid-market player in the natural colours, flavours and ingredients sector. With the support of Ambienta, Nactarome has grown its revenues in excess of €120m, spread its manufacturing footprint to twelve specialised plants in Italy, the UK, France and Belgium, and built a diversified customer base of over 4,200 clients served across more than 100 countries. Nactarome has a comprehensive product offering across natural flavours, colours and ingredients. The acquisition of TasteConnection will strengthen Nactarome’s brand and competitive positioning in the UK market.

OC&C is a leading advisor to investors and executives across the food & drink sector as well as the broader consumer goods space. We are increasingly expert in ingredients with deep knowledge across our North American, European and Asian offices. We are delighted to have supported Ambienta and Nactarome in this important acquisition.
