Andersen has advised the Aksìa Capital V fund on the acquisition of RIS Iberia, a Spanish company specialized in the design and supply of professional irrigation solutions for agricultural and residential use. With this transaction, Aksìa Capital strengthens the presence of the IREX Group (Irrigation Excellence), Aksìa’s portfolio company and a leading European industrial platform in precision irrigation technologies in the Iberian market. The group will benefit from the commercial and operational synergies arising from the integration of RIS Iberia. Furthermore, the acquisition will enable IREX to expand its offering with integrated solutions for agriculture, urban landscaping, and landscape design.
IREX Group is owned by Aksìa Capital V, a private equity firm operating since 1997 that primarily invests in mid-sized Italian companies, supporting their growth, international expansion, and executive development. IREX designs, manufactures, and distributes components, complete systems, and digital technologies for precision agriculture, as well as sports and ornamental irrigation.
