Turkish confectioner Ulker Biskuvi has offloaded its share in three local subsidiaries – Istanbul Gida, Birlesik dis Ticaret and Rekor – to parent firm Yildiz Holding in a series of deals worth TRY36m (US$17m).

Istanbul Gida is the export firm for the Ulker products. Birlesik dis Ticaret is the export company for non-Ulker and branded products. While Rekor sells non-Ulker branded products to the domestic market. 

The transactions are expected to close in May.

Ulker will sell 91.4% its stake in Istanbul Gida for Dis Ticaret for TRY28.6m, its 79.2% stake in Birlesik Dis Ticaret for TRY3.2m and Rekor’s 43.9% for TL4m.

“Following these transactions, we will have no shares in these companies. In total we made a profit of close to TRY6m from the sale of these three companies to Yildiz Holding.”

Earlier the firm announced a 13% profit jump to TRY51m for the first quarter of 2014.
