Profura, by means of its Provator subsidiary, has successfully obtained full ownership of Framptons, a renowned British food and beverage company recognized for its production of oat-based beverages.
Provator specializes in investing in companies facing financial challenges, provided they possess a robust core business and exhibit significant growth potential.
Located in Shepton Mallet, UK, Framptons manufactures top-tier products and is dedicated to fostering support for the local community.
Established in 1898, Framptons boasts a significant heritage in the processing and packaging industry. Over the years, the company has diversified its product range, encompassing eggs, dairy, and, more recently, venturing into the production of plant-based items like oat milk. Collaborating with renowned brands such as Shaken Udder milkshakes and Mighty, Framptons has solidified its position as a key player in the market. Beyond its commercial success, the company upholds a strong commitment to sustainability, evidenced by a waste management initiative that minimizes landfill contributions and achieves nearly 100% recycling of on-site waste.
The newly formed board consists of members from both Profura and Framptons.
Bernt Ivarsson, owner of the Profura group, said, “Our experience with this type of business makes me look forward to being able to start our change work. We have the right key people to be able to develop Framptons and take a leading position in the market.”
