NOVEPAN
Azulis Capital has sold its majority stake in NOVEPAN Group, a leading manufacturer of special and premium frozen breads, savory snacks, and pizza dough, which now has 5 industrial sites in France, employs over 300 people, and generates a turnover of €85m.
This sale is part of an operation to reorganize the capital around Jean-Manuel Lévêque, the current CEO, and the management team, in partnership with SAGARD. NOVEPAN emerged in 2017 through the merger of two historical players in the industry, Grain d'Or Gel and Lubrano.
In 2019, the group accelerated its development with the acquisition of Bionatis, a leader in organic bread, followed in 2021 by the takeover of Les Ateliers du Pain, a pioneer within the artisanal bread segment. Azulis Capital and its co-investors have supported the group's development strategy, enabling it to become a leader in France's premium frozen bread industry.

EURADIF
Azulis Capital, with the participation of BNP Paribas Développement, has become the majority shareholder of EURADIF group. The founder and CEO Jean-Gabriel Creton and GEI are ploughing back while the management team is also investing in the transaction.
Founded in 1994 and based in Godewaersvelde (Nord), EURADIF is the only pure player in France specialized in the manufacture of entry doors for individual homes within the renovation market. From a business historically focused on the trade of semi-finished products (decorative PVC beaded panels), EURADIF successively diversified into the manufacture of panels at first (in 2000), and then of aluminum monobloc doors openings (in 2013). Since 2017, EURADIF covers all the needs of the profession: semi-finished products with door panels or monobloc openings, and finished products through aluminum entry doors under the trademark PASSAGE.
EURADIF achieved a turnover of €32 M in 2021, up by 38% vs 2020.
With Azulis' support, EURADIF intends to accelerate its development, either through organic growth by capitalizing on the success of its PASSAGE aluminum entry doors, or through targeted external growth operations, while strengthening the actions already undertaken in terms of CSR.
This transaction is the fifth investment of the MMF 6 fund.
