AMF Bakery Systems purchases Tromp Bakery Equipment
AMF Bakery Systems has completed its acquisition of Tromp Bakery Equipment B.V. and affiliated entities (“Tromp”), a global supplier of baking equipment based in Gorinchem, The Netherlands (www.trompgroup.nl). Tromp designs and manufactures sheeting lines for pie, pizza, pastry and bread bakers worldwide.
"We are excited to join forces with Tromp," stated Ken Newsome, president of AMF. "They have an excellent reputation for quality and innovation in the growing market of pies, pizza, pastries and other specialty items. Additionally, as industrial bakers explore sheeting as part of their approach to bread make up, this gives us leading edge technology to help our traditional AMF customers. This strategic addition enables us to leverage our position as a global leader in high-speed bread and bun bakery systems and expand our offering into the specialty bakery sector."
