In Tunisia, Bimbo acquired Moulin d’Or, the leading producer of sweet baked foods. The company’s products include individual cakes, family-size cakes, pastries, cookies, bread, tarts and tartlets. It is Bimbo’s first in Tunisia. In Costa Rica, Bimbo purchased La Zarcereña, the leading producer of sweet baked foods and a baker of cookies and snacks. The fourth acquisition was in Turkey, where it acquired a 30% stake in UNO, a baker of packaged bread. Founded in 1990, UNO has three facilities and 2,000 employees.
