Neither Bernard Matthews nor its buyer are confirming the turkey producer has been sold, but one of the unions is.
Steve Harley, Unite's regional officer, said: "The announcement that Bernard Matthews has been sold by its owners Rutland Partners to the 2 Sisters Food Group appears to be good news for the 2,000-strong workforce.
"We are giving the news a cautious welcome.
"However, in takeover situations, there are always matters that need to be clarified.
"Unite is meeting the company tomorrow where searching questions will be asked on future employment, pay, and terms and conditions.
"We will also be asking about the status of the pension scheme under the new owners, although it is expected that our members won't be affected in this respect by today's takeover."
The union said it represented about 800 members of the 2,000-strong workforce at the production sites at Great Witchingham in Norfolk, Holton in Suffolk and the animal food mill at Bawsey near King's Lynn.

"How dare the government impose on the Eastern region a deal which nobody voted for, so we are calling for the people to decide not just on the departure but the destination too."
Liberal Democrat membership in the East has increased by 1,700 since the EU referendum.
