Tony’s buys first manufacturing facility in M&A: ‘Operating our own factory is a strategic milestone’
By Flora Southey
Tony’s Chocolonely has acquired Belgian chocolate business Althaea-De Laet Int., and along with it, its first factory.
Althaea-De Laet Int. has more than one string to its bow: the Belgian business makes and sells Fairtrade-certified bars, tablets, easter eggs and bonbons under its own Althaea brand, and produces private label chocolate products for customers.
Tony’s Chocolonely has been one of its clients since the challenger brand first launched in 2005. And now, Tony’s is taking control of the business in an M&A move that gives the rapidly-growing company its own factory.

Colombia's cartels target Europe with cocaine, corruption and torture

Colombia’s cartels target Europe with cocaine, corruption and torture
Raids by Belgian police have lifted the lid on a sinister new front in the drugs war
By Daniel Boffey / The Guardian, BRUSSELS
At 5am on a chilly Tuesday morning last month, 1,600 police officers and balaclava-wearing special forces, bristling with arms and battering rams, were ordered into action around the Belgian port city of Antwerp.
More than 200 addresses were raided in what was the largest police operation ever conducted in the country and potentially one of the most significant moves yet against the increasingly powerful narco-gangs of western Europe.
There are hopes that Operation Sky will herald the downfall of a generation of local bosses, although the Belgian and Dutch “godfathers” largely now hide out in Dubai and Turkey, hoping to be out of reach of the authorities.
