Aristotle completed the acquisition of a 31% stake in Quantum Foods form Old Mutual and Allan Gray for $26m.

Aristotle, a poultry business and out-grower scheme, completed the acquisition of a 31% stake in Quantum Foods, a company focused on agricultural business, form Old Mutual, a premium African financial services grou, and Allan Gray, an investment management company, for $26m. "If there is to be a change in control of Quantum, it could adversely impact the broiler supply agreement with them, and Astral would most probably have to consider a significant investment in broiler production capacity to ensure the continued supply of live broiler chickens to its County Fair operation in the Western Cape."
