Kraft Foods has started to buy any remaining shares in Cadbury after over 90% of the Dairy Milk maker’s shareholders accepted the US food giant’s takeover offer.
In a statement to the London Stock Exchange today (15 February), Kraft said it would “compulsorily” buy the outstanding shares after crossing the 90% threshold.
Cadbury, which makes Trident gum and The Natural Confectionery Co. candy, will be delisted by 8 March.
