CEO of Finnish Chocolate Maker Fazer Sees IPO Happening by 2029

Finnish chocolate maker Fazer is on track for a possible initial public offering within a few years to fund an international expansion and potential acquisitions, Chief Executive Officer Christoph Vitzthum said.

“I see Fazer listing by 2029,” Vitzthum said in an interview at the company’s chocolate factory just outside of Helsinki. The family-owned company still has some work to do to ensure investors understand its various businesses, the CEO said.
