Eight Advisory supported Montaner Pietrini Boissons on the strategic reorganisation of its share capital

Montaner Pietrini Boissons was founded in Marseille in 2008 and has since become a key player in beverage distribution in the cafés, hotels and restaurants sector. With its 500-strong workforce, the Group supplies more than 8,000 references of water, wine, spirits, beer, soft drinks and coffee to a network of around 11,000 customers, mainly in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur region, but also in the Occitanie and Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes regions.

After Crédit Mutuel Equity, which supported the Group in around ten acquisitions and the development of its product range between 2018 and 2022, it is now LFPI’s turn to become the main minority shareholder. The company’s founders, Jean-Pascal Montaner and Eric Pietrini, will retain the majority of the capital, to which other company executives have also gained access as part of the transaction.

“We are delighted to have supported Montaner Pietrini Boissons in this transaction, which will enable it to pursue its growth ambitions, particularly in terms of geographical expansion and market consolidation,” says Stéphane Vanbergue, Partner at Eight Advisory.
