CASAGRANDE SHIFTS GEARS
We are delighted to share with you an important and strategic milestone for the Casagrande Group, marking the beginning of a new chapter in our global growth and development journey.
After over sixty years of history, we have embarked on a new path of expansion by partnering with a club of investors led by Edoardo Lanzavecchia and Riccardo Monti, two highly respected professionals with more than thirty years of experience in private equity and industry. The investment club brings together prominent family offices, institutional investors, and private backers who have chosen to believe in our long-term industrial vision.
This transaction, which resulted in the acquisition of 100% of the Group’s share capital, was carried out with the support of top-tier advisors: Rothschild & Co as financial advisor, Unicredit as referral agent for fundraising, and Essentia for financing consultancy. BCG acted as industrial advisor, while New Deal Advisors conducted the financial and tax due diligence, and ERM handled the environmental one.
In this context, the Casagrande family, which has successfully guided the Group’s growth since its foundation, has reinvested a significant stake through the companies represented by Sergio Casagrande and Mauro Casagrande, confirming its strong long-term industrial commitment and its determination to actively contribute to the company’s future expansion.
Our strategic objective is to strengthen the Group’s financial resources in order to fully seize the opportunities offered by the global market—while staying true to our industrial identity, core values, and deep-rooted heritage that have made Casagrande a recognized leader in our sector.
We are also pleased to announce that Sergio Casagrande has been confirmed as Group Chairman. The current organizational structure is excited to welcome Fausto Carboni as our new Chief Executive Officer. Dr. Carboni brings extensive expertise in the industrial mechanics sector, having served for nine years as CEO of Bonfiglioli S.p.A., a global leader in gear reducers.
Driven by confidence in the vision and competence of our investors, we have taken this strategic step with the firm belief that it will unlock new and significant growth and business development opportunities. We sincerely thank you for your continued trust and collaboration—essential pillars for the present and future success of the Casagrande Group.
Casagrande S.p.A.
