Explaining the acquisition of Uruguayan premix company Nutrisur, CCPA Group is strengthening its presence in South America. The acquisition, which will be carried out through Euro-Nutec Premix, a joint venture between CCPA and NUTEC® Groups, will allow Nutrisur to rely on the research and experimentation resources of both companies.
The CCPA Group, a specialist in animal nutrition for almost 60 years, has announced the acquisition of Nutrisur, a Uruguayan premix company with over 20 years of experience in the animal nutrition sector. CCPA points out this strategic operation as allowing the company to expand its presence in Latin America and strengthen its commitment to its customers in these key markets.
The acquisition will be carried out through Euro-Nutec Premix, a joint venture created in 1996 between CCPA Group (France) and NUTEC® Group (Mexico).
Nutrisur, located in Canelones, in southern Uruguay, is a major national player recognized for its professionalism, innovation capacity, and the quality of its products and services that meet the specific needs of farmers and their animals.
Nutrisur will now be able to rely on the research and experimentation resources of the CCPA and NUTEC® Groups. “This acquisition represents a key step in our growth strategy in Latin America,” says Mickaël Marcerou, Chairman of Euro-Nutec’s Board of Directors. “We are convinced that Nutrisur’s expertise combined with our know-how will allow us to accelerate our development and offer increasingly innovative products and services that improve the profitability, sustainability, and efficiency of farmers in Uruguay and the Southern Cone.”
“This investment strengthens our commitment to innovation and the development of the livestock sector. We remain determined to optimize animal nutrition through digital transformation globally,” adds Jérémie Larcher, CEO of NUTEC® Group.
With this agreement, the CCPA Group explains it reaffirms its strategic ambition to strengthen its presence in growing markets. “In line with our strategic plan Become, we continue the internationalization of CCPA,” adds François Pellet, CEO of CCPA Group. “This acquisition, through our joint venture with the NUTEC® Group, also demonstrates our ability to build long-term partnerships. CCPA will continue to be alert to opportunities for external growth and partnerships: we are indeed convinced that our expertise (nutrition, phyto-ingredients, digital) is essential to meet the challenges of competitiveness and sustainability in livestock farming on all continents.”
