Food industry corporate acquisitions

Overview

The food industry has seen various strategic acquisitions by major players. In Spain, Grupo Fuertes acquired Nutrave, a poultry company in Toledo, to strengthen its market presence and control the production chain. This follows the group’s previous acquisitions of Tolvasa and Paasa in Albacete, intended to maintain Spanish poultry production within family businesses.

In Latin America, Colombian conglomerate Grupo Nutresa reported strong third-quarter 2026 financial results. Under the leadership of Jaime Gilinski, the group has executed a regional expansion through several acquisitions: taking full control of Industrias Tío Rico C. A. in Venezuela, acquiring La Universal in Ecuador, and securing the Presto restaurant chain and Mimo’s ice cream chain in Colombia.
