French Salvi Groupe acquires valencian transport company Dietrans

Vinca Capital acted as the seller’s advisor

February 5, 2025 – On December 19, 2024, an agreement was signed in Valencia under which the French company Salvi Groupe acquired 100% of the shares of the Valencian transport company Dietrans. The sale was completed following a structured process coordinated by Vinca Capital, which was engaged by Dietrans‘ shareholders to help ensure the continuity of their business.

Founded in 1992 in Valencia, Dietrans specializes in domestic freight transport by road. The company has a family-owned structure and is currently run by the second generation. The agreement allows the company to consolidate its growth over more than 30 years of history and strengthen its future plans with an international partner.

Vinca Capital supported Dietrans’ shareholders throughout the entire sale process, analyzing different strategic options, which included interest from both financial and industrial buyers. In the end, Salvi Groupe, a leading company in the sector, emerged as the successful bidder.

This transaction enables Salvi Groupe to reinforce its presence in Spain, where it already had an operational branch in Castellón, specializing in the transport of ceramic products. The acquisition of Dietrans enhances its footprint in eastern Spain, adding 40 trucks to its fleet and expanding its portfolio with top-tier clients such as Pernod Ricard and Lactalis (Puleva).

For this transaction, the sellers were advised by Vinca Capital and Across Legal, while the buyers were advised by Cairus and Mariscal & Abogados.
