Goodman Fielder acquisition cleared by Chinese government
Goodman Fielder is one step closer to being acquired after receiving approval from the Chinese government.

Goodman Fielder is still waiting on approval from New Zealand’s Overseas Investment Office before going ahead with the deal.
The company will hold a shareholder meeting on 26 February to consider and vote on the scheme.
