Latteria Soresina grows ever larger: the merger with Saviola was concluded on 1° October
- Information
A new chapter opens in the industrial growth of Latteria Soresina: yesterday, 1° October, the acquisition process of Saviola was completed.
The operation, launched in March 2024, was carried out in tandem with Zanetti, bringing together, in an unprecedented way, a first-tier cooperative (Soresina itself) and a privately owned company (Zanetti).
What assets are being transferred to Latteria Soresina
This was followed by a demerger of the assets, which brought the management of the San Giovanni in Croce plant (Cremona) and Saviola Spa within Soresina's perimeter.
The acquirer, the queen of cheeses with a designation of origin, such as Grana Padano, Parmigiano Reggiano, Gorgonzola and many others, and based, specifically, in Soresina, in the province of Cremona, is a leading player with revenues 2025 of 602 million euros, +15%, an EBITDA of 4% and 220 million in foreign turnover.
Saviola, whose operational headquarters are in San Giovanni in Croce, is above all a specialist in Grana Padano and Parmigiano Reggiano and is worth approximately 140 million euros in terms of consolidated turnover.
The merger strengthens the group's synergies and its ability to address an evolving market.
Saviola and Soresina adopt a single corporate name
The process has already generated concrete results: from the digitalisation of the San Giovanni in Croce plant to the IT integration connected with the merger process, which will improve management flows at all levels, raising the quality and efficiency of the processes.
As the president of Latteria Soresina, Tiziano Fusar Poli and the general manager, Michele Falzetta, point out, this operation is the result of a shared strategic vision and of all the employees' ability to work together, addressing and implementing the changes necessary to ensure continuity for over 126 years of history and to enhance an Italian excellence such as Grana Padano PDO, of which Latteria Soresina is the world's leading producer.
Following the completion of the merger, the two companies have, since yesterday, operated under a single corporate name, Latteria Soresina Sca.
