Eurazeo in Exclusive Talks with Ferrara Over CPK Stake Sale
On July 11, 2025, Eurazeo announced the commencement of exclusive discussions with a European holding company of Ferrara Candy Company. This dialogue pertains to the sale of its stake in CPK Group, a prominent player in the confectionery and chocolate sectors in Europe. CPK was established following the acquisition of several brands from Mondelez and a merger with Lamy Lutti in 2018.
CPK operates three production sites in France and employs over 900 individuals. The potential deal would see Eurazeo divest its entire financial interest in CPK, aligning with its strategy of fostering European champions while delivering value to its stakeholders.
The transaction's closure, projected for Q4 2025, hinges on consultations with trade unions and competition authority approvals. The sale would be the fifth successive strategic exit for Eurazeo, expected to yield approximately €240 million.
