Meat and seafood manufacturer Hilton Foods has agreed to sell its Dutch-based vegan and vegetarian business, Dalco Food, to LiveKindly Collective for £5.4 million. The deal follows LiveKindly’s recent acquisition of German plant-based food brand Greenforce , with the company continuing to expand its portfolio in the plant-based space. Other brands under the LiveKindly Collective include Fry’s Family Foods, Like, and Oumph. LiveKindly’s mission is to help drive the shift forward a more sustainable food system and ‘make plant-based living the new norm’. Hilton Foods reported that Dalco made an adjusted operating loss of approximately £2 million in the first half of 2026, expected to be reported as a loss from discontinued operations.
