Famous Brands beefing up supply chain

Last little bit of company news today, Famous Brands shares have rocketed to above 110 Rand a share again (more than that, as high as 115 ZAR), on the news that they are acquiring a stake (75 percent - controlling stake) in a business called Cater Chain Food Services, from a set of brothers John and Roy Tem-Tem. As per the Cater Chain website in the about us section, the company is a red meat production business, again as per their website capable of producing 400 tons of frozen, fresh and processed products each and every week. Wow. That is a lot of meat for the hungry. Latest technology, check it out -> Production plant. The SENS release says slightly different things, it says 900 tons of beef, lamb, mutton, chicken, bacon and ham. This is where you make the money, the storage space for burger patties, you can take a turn again on the same cheaper burger. Provided of course that the same burger is sold at the same price, to the end consumer. Great move, the market approves.
