Dibal strengthens its presence in France with a highly advanced preliminary agreement for the acquisition of Precia Molen’s retail weighing activities
As part of this transaction, a new company, PRECIA DIBAL PESAGE SAS, is set to be established, with 100% Dibal ownership, integrating these activities and strengthening the company’s presence in the French market. The new entity will market its products under the PRECIA and DIBAL brands.
This acquisition includes the retail weighing division located in Privas (P1) and the Rungis business, which operates a sales and after-sales service facility within France’s largest wholesale food market. The new subsidiary will operate with a team of 16 professionals, including experienced employees with extensive sector knowledge and a deep understanding of the French market.
The new company will be led by Filipe Gomes, a seasoned professional with vast experience in integrations and commercial management, who will spearhead this new phase for Dibal in France. Until its full integration and transfer to the Commercial Department, the project will be directly overseen by Dibal’s General Management.
“We are extremely excited about this operation, which presents a great opportunity to strengthen our presence in France and expand our retail weighing offering. Establishing this new subsidiary will allow us to be closer to our customers and respond to their needs more efficiently,” stated Juan Román, Managing Director of Dibal.
The objective of this acquisition is to boost Dibal’s sales in the retail sector in France, with a particular focus on large distribution chains, a segment where the company seeks to strengthen its position. Furthermore, this operation will drive the commercialisation of advanced industrial solutions, such as automatic weighing and labelling systems and weight controllers, further solidifying Dibal’s leadership in the sector.
With this strategic move, Dibal reinforces its commitment to innovation and excellence, securing its growth in a key market while enhancing its ability to deliver cutting-edge technological solutions tailored to customer needs.
