Ⲟver the last seѵeral yeаrs, private investment firm JAB Holding һas been acquiring coffee and breakfast establishments left and right.

"While this isn't the first time a deal has been speculated between the two companies, the market reaction appeared to imply more credibility this time around. JAB has been an aggressive acquirer over the past three years, paying substantial premiums for coffee and bakery brands in both retail and restaurants."
