Grupo Montplet, the national leader and one of the key players in the European market for ethanol-based solutions, has reached an agreement to bring Corpfin Capital on board as a strategic partner to accelerate its growth. This transaction marks the beginning of a new chapter for Grupo Montplet, which will include expanding its product portfolio, boosting its international presence, and strengthening its management team. Vanessa Monfort will remain the company’s main shareholder and, together with her team, will continue to lead the business with the strategic, operational, and financial support of Corpfin Capital.
Founded in 1889 and headquartered in Barcelona, Grupo Montplet is a fifth-generation family group specializing in the distribution and production of ethanol-derived products. Over the years, the Group has diversified its original business — Alcoholes Montplet, the leading distributor of ethanol-based solutions for major manufacturers in the perfume, chemical, pharmaceutical, and other industries — with the creation and spin-off of Laboratorios Montplet, a company focused on the manufacturing and sale of disinfectants, pesticides, and cosmetics through a multi-channel strategy that includes mass retail, the pharmaceutical sector, and hospitals. In both business areas, the Group maintains a significant international presence.
Corpfin Capital will support the Group’s growth and the continuous improvement of its business through its resources and extensive experience in industrial projects, driving product innovation, supporting international expansion, and contributing to sustainable development.
Vanessa Monfort, the main shareholder of Grupo Montplet, said: “Grupo Montplet is ideally positioned to embark on a new phase of growth, leveraging the experience we have built up over the years and the contribution of a new strategic partner like Corpfin Capital.”
Gorka García, Managing Partner at Corpfin Capital, stated: “Montplet is an extraordinary group of companies with a management team fully committed to taking the business to the next level. We are excited about the opportunity to bring our experience and collaborate in this ambitious growth project.”
Corpfin Capital was advised by KPMG and Cuatrecasas, while Grupo Montplet was advised by Aldgate Capital Partners and Garrigues.
