Ajinomoto North America, Inc., a Fort Lee, N.J.-based consolidated subsidiary of Ajinomoto Co., Inc. in Japan, entered into an agreement to acquire Windsor Quality Holdings, LP, an ethnic frozen foods processor based in Houston, Texas, for approximately $800 million.
By combining Windsor' s marketing power, knowledge of U.S. consumers, distribution and sales capabilities and production footprints throughout the United States with AJINA' s strengths in healthy and high-quality frozen foods products, Ajinomoto will accelerate its growth to achieve its fiscal 2020 sales target of JPY 100 billion for its frozen food business in North America and secure its position as the No. 1 manufacturer in the Asian/ethnic frozen food market.
