Blackstone and BC Partners to submit joint bid for Iglo

Offer from Blackstone and BC Partners likely to come in below Permira's price expectations of about €2.5bn

Buyout companies Blackstone Group and BC Partners will submit a joint bid for privately-owned food company Iglo in time for a Thursday deadline, people familiar with the matter said.

The two groups have decided to team up after earlier having been in competition to buy Europe's largest frozen-food company by sales in an auction. It's unclear if there are any additional bidders for the asset.
