MARKET UPDATE: LISTING OF FOODSERVICE OPERATIONS
Bidvest shareholders (“Shareholders”) are referred to the Company’s audited results announcement
for the year ended June 30 2014, released on the Stock Exchange News Service of the JSE Limited
(“JSE”) on September 1 2014 in which Shareholders were advised that the board of directors
(“Board”) has resolved to evaluate the benefits of the listing of the foodservice operations on the

In line with the resolution by the Board, the Company has appointed Barclays Bank plc and Investec
Bank Limited (the “Banks”) to carry out preliminary investigations to determine the merits of a listing
of the foodservice operations on the LSE (including an inward secondary listing on the JSE).
Shareholders will be kept abreast of any further developments following the conclusion of the review
by the Banks and a further announcement will be made in due course.
