The Farsons Group of Companies includes an increasingly diversified and dynamic portfolio of related businesses predominantly in the beverage and leisure market sectors.

The Group is made up of Simonds Farsons Cisk plc, the parent company, and nine subsidiaries, including a fast food business, the importation and distribution of wines and spirits, a shopping centre, the distribution of water in containers and dispensers and a company with its own two wine labels. (For more information on the Farsons Group, view www.farsons.com.) Quintano Foods Limited is the latest addition to the Group, and the only food importing company.

In line with the Group's strategy of further consolidating its business interests, yet also tapping newly established market opportunities, particularly as a result of the liberalization of the food business, along with Malta's EU accession, the acquisition of Quintano Foods Limited was considered a natural extension.
