A definitive agreement was reached on 6 November to sell the business.

“This is a win-win situation for both parties and we are pleased to see the Knopf brothers return to ownership of their family business. The Knopf brothers are excellent businessmen and are best suited to continue to grow this business. Remy will have a continued involvement with the Knopfs going forward and we wish them well in their future endeavours.”


The completion of the transaction is subject to customary conditions but is scheduled for 4 December.
