Crackerjack Foods is a leading, Melbourne-based frozen foods manufacturer, specialising in premium potato-based and frozen products. The company’s product line includes a variety of potato cake options, as well as battered hot dogs, hash browns and battered fish products.
In September 2023, Crackerjack entered into an agreement to be acquired by US French Fries manufacturer Lamb Weston. The transaction provides Lamb Weston with access to Crackerjack’s two manufacturing plants in Campbellfield and Keilor, where the business can continue making inroads in the ‘premiumisation’ trend within the frozen foods sector.
Nash Advisory was appointed by Crackerjack in February 2023 to assist with structuring and executing the divestment. The transaction was led by Paul Nemets, who was supported by Jack Geason. HWL Ebsworth acted as legal advisor on the transaction.

Saint David's Dairy is a premium dairy brand that supplies milk and other dairy products to cafe's and restaurants across Victoria. SDD is an iconic brand, particularly in Melbourne's 'coffee culture' inner suburbs.
Maggie Beer Holdings engaged Nash Advisory to conduct a strategic review of their dairy operations. Ultimately, SDD was identified as a non-core asset and the business was divested to Goulburn Valley Creamery. All staff transitioned with the sale and SDD continues to operate in the local market.
The transaction was led by Nash Advisory’s Paul Nemets and Sean O’Neill.
