		<description><![CDATA[Cris Dillon, COO of C2C said, “Well-run companies with top class operations and a great product will always perform well, even in a difficult financial climate. As a low cost, popular fast food, pies are a wonderfully resilient product. St Pie is growing strongly, with over 20 percent growth in sales per annum, year-on-year for the last five years. This transaction is in line with our strategy of investing in fast moving consumer goods (FMCG) companies in South Africa.”

		<description><![CDATA[IT'S NOT A MINI Bidvest - yet. But the immediate objective of private equity firm Coast2Coast is squarely in line with building a series of focused conglomerates in the mould of a Tiger Brands or Pioneer Foods. Company CE Gary Shayne hopes its alternative approach to investment will lead to a listed entity within the next two years. Unlike traditional private equity players who deal with individual companies, Coast2Coast is looking to cluster together smaller companies in industry sectors and bring them to market.
