Finland HKScan previously announced the merger of two of its Estonian companies this May – meat processing Rakvere Lihakombinaat and poultry Tallegg, to be re-christened HK Estonia. As a result, the HKScan subsidiaries in Latvia and Lithuania are also to have new names (e.g., Klaipedos maisto mesos produktai becomes HKScan Lietuva).
Rigas miesnieks in 2013 merged with Jelgavas galas kombinats, with the Jelgava plant taking the production end, but Riga – logistics and management. Both well-known brands were retained.
