    Until the sale of UB subsidiary KP Snacks to Intersnack - an agreement announced in December of 2012 - United Biscuits was also a leading manufacturer of nuts and savory snacks.

    United Biscuits is owned by Blackstone and PAI, who acquired United Bisuits in 2006 for £1.6bn from a private consortium that acquired the company in 2000, when it was listed on the London stock exchange.
