Re: Digestive Biscuits
Yes, Turkish food manufacture Ulker's bought out United Biscuits, who make digestives a year or so ago. They are also in Sok and Kipa...

I think it was Yildiz, rather than Ulker. I was surprised at the sale, though.

Re: Digestive Biscuits
As Yildiz owns Ulker it makes little difference.
The big difference is though - apart from price - how much smaller the Turkish produced McVities Digestives are...probably half the size of the UK ones.

I hadn't realised that Yildiz owned Ulker.

Re: Digestive Biscuits
In actual fact, Yildiz is just the conglomerate name for the Ulker family who established Yildiz Holdings in 1944 and still run it.
Their biggest acquisition was United Biscuits but they also own Godiva Belgian Chocolate as well as the Ulker brand.

Re: Digestive Biscuits
Just told my wife about McVities in Migros, and she told me that she had been told today that Kipa in Alanya have been taken over by Migros!!!
