Suntory could build UK 'bridgehead' with GSK brands Ribena and Lucozade
GlaxoSmithKline's (GSK's) brands Lucozade and Ribena are tempting targets for Far Eastern trade players such as Suntory Holdings that wish to establish a bridgehead in the UK, says an M&A expert. Sky News reported this morning that private equity firms Lion Capital and Blackstone had appointed bankers Rothschild to advise on a potential £1bn+ ($1.52bn) bid for the two GSK brands.
