Following its announcement about the acquisition of Wedderspoon last year, Florenz shared another exciting development that further strengthened its position in the global market.
Florenz has just announced its agreement to acquire New Zealand Global Foods, a renowned company based in Christchurch. The acquisition marked a significant milestone for the company as it integrated the world-class expertise of New Zealand Global Foods into its portfolio.
New Zealand Global Foods, originally a family business founded in 1949, has been celebrated as a leader in handmade Manuka products, producing tens of millions of drops annually for Wedderspoon alone.
This acquisition aligned perfectly with Florenz's international growth strategy for Wedderspoon, which has been experiencing unprecedented demand globally.
Known for producing the highly successful Wedderspoon Manuka Honey Drops, these products are available online and at thousands of distribution points across North America.
Wedderspoon’s Manuka honey originated in New Zealand and was obtained from the country's best Manuka beekeeping families. This raw honey maintains enzyme activity and is packaged in a facility in New Zealand.
Some of the company’s products, such as the Wedderspoon Manuka Honey Lozenges, contain Manuka honey from New Zealand and are later manufactured in the United States along with other lozenge ingredients, such as EpiCor.
As they take ownership on the 1st of April 2025, Florenz was honoured to continue bringing the best natural products from New Zealand to consumers worldwide.
