A Digital Future for Food?
The transaction aligns with a broader trend across the food industry to digitize operations in the face of rising regulatory scrutiny, supply volatility, and sustainability goals. With this stake sale, Hilton Food may be signaling it’s ready to collaborate with innovation leaders rather than build all tech capabilities in-house.
Pending regulatory clearance, the deal could close in the coming months, setting the stage for Foods Connected’s next phase of growth — and possibly making spreadsheets a relic of the past for the food supply chain.
