FSI invests in Casalasco to create a European sustainable leader in agri-food<\/strong><\/p>\n

Comunicato stampa<\/p>\n

Milan \/ Rivarolo del Re (CR), March 31, 2025 \u2013 FSI, the largest single country-focused private equity investor in Europe, invests in the growth of Casalasco Societ\u00e0 Agricola SpA, a company deeply rooted in the sustainable agri-food sector in Italy, with over 2,000 employees, 5 plants, and revenues exceeding 600 million euros.
\nFSI signed a binding agreement for a partnership with Casalasco\u2019s reference shareholder, Consorzio Casalasco del Pomodoro. According to the terms of the agreement, FSI will be able to invest over 200 million euros for sector build-ups and international expansion.<\/p>\n

Casalasco and its fully integrated supply chain represent a forward-thinking leader in the context of the Italian sustainable agricultural sector, successfully combining tradition and innovation, by integrating the production and transformation cycle of raw materials with sustainability goals.<\/p>\n

The company offers a wide range of products made of ingredients sourced from surrounding territories, which are processed immediately after the harvest, ensuring an efficient \u201czero-kilometer\u201d supply chain.<\/p>\n

Casalasco\u2019s products are mostly based on tomato, legumes and fresh basil. Casalasco advanced methodologies of farming and processing allow the preservation of nutritional and organoleptic properties, contributing to a healthy and balanced diet.
\nAdditionally, Casalasco\u2019s supply chain employs innovative agricultural practices aimed at minimising environmental impacts, protecting biodiversity and water resources, and enhancing soil regeneration capacity. Casalasco is committed to develop high-quality Italian products, while supporting land restoration initiatives. These efforts contribute to the production of healthy and high-quality food, in line with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The products stand out for their 100% Italian origin and the use of raw materials sourced from traceable supply chains.<\/p>\n

This ongoing commitment positions Casalasco as a key contributor to the transformation of the Italian agri-food system, as outlined by the European Commission\u2019s \u201cFarm to Fork\u201d strategy under the European Green Deal.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur investment supports a significant build-up project, starting from Italy, with a broader European focus, in line with the FSI investment strategy \u2013 s<\/strong><\/em>aid Maurizio Tamagnini, CEO of FSI<\/strong> \u2013 creating an open platform available to other companies and entrepreneurs who share the same values, with the goal of reaching 1.5 billion euros in revenues. FSI, as an Italian institutional investor, continues to promote transformational growth projects for forward looking Italian corporates.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cCasalasco has strong commitment to sustainability which represents an increasingly crucial value to obtain recognition from both customers and public equity investors,\u201d <\/em>said Barnaba Ravanne, Co-Managing Partner of FSI<\/strong>. \u201cWe believe that, following a significant growth path, Casalasco can achieve a successful listing with a one billion plus euros public market capitalisation. This would provide Italy with a sizeable listed company in a strategic sector for the national economy, such as agri-food.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThe FSI investment represents an important growth accelerator for Casalasco and its supply chain\u201d \u2013 <\/em>stated Costantino Vaia, CEO of Casalasco<\/strong>. \u201cTogether with FSI, we are now committed to shaping the future of Casalasco and its farmers stakeholders, focusing on development and value creation\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n
