In September 2007, 20% of the company was sold to Associated British Foods, followed by a further 42% in June 2008, becoming fully owned by ABF by 2013. In April 2003, the company won a Queen's Awards for Enterprise. It produced vending machines for schools filled with healthy food. In 2002, they formed the joint venture 'the Organic and Natural Food Company' with Yeo Valley Organic. It now produces four different cereal bars including Frusli which contains 25% fruit, Breakfast Bars, Luxury Absolute Nut Bar and Original Crunchy Bars. In 1981, Jordans began production of a cereal bar called Original Crunchy. Its main product it started with, and still produces, is called Crunchy Oats, which is based on granola.
