Trinità Salumi has been acquired by Fondo Italiano d'Investimento

Trinità Salumi, a leading group in the cured meats sector, has been acquired by Fondo Italiano d’Investimento through its subsidiary Fondo Italiano Agri&Food (FIAF). The transaction aims to support the founders in Trinità’s development process, strengthen its position in the Italian foodservice market and increase its export share.

Founded in 1982, Trinità Salumi manufactures a wide range of cured meats, including cooked ham, mortadella, salami, coppa, bacon and speck. Since its establishment, the group has completed seven acquisitions in Italy. It currently operates five production sites in Veneto, Lombardy and Marche, with more than 250 employees and agents. Trinità has a prominent position in the Italian foodservice sector, bolstered by continuous investments in the latest generation of machinery.

Fondo Italiano Agri&Food (FIAF), part of Fondo Italiano d'Investimento and launched at the end of 2022 with €225 million (US$248 million) of assets under management, is a sectoral fund aimed at assisting the growth of the Italian agrifood industry by focusing on medium-sized companies and promoting consolidation.

Oaklins’ team in Italy supported Trinità as the exclusive sell-side advisor in the sale of a majority stake to FIAF.
