Ares takes majority stake in Europastry

Europastry operates as a manufacturer and distributor of frozen dough solutions for the bakery sector. The company’s business model focuses on supplying frozen bread, viennoiserie, and pastry snacks through a multi-channel commercial structure targeting artisanal bakeries, grocery retailers, and foodservice operators. Operating with an international footprint, the platform generates more than half of its revenue outside its domestic Spanish market, maintaining commercial operations across over 80 countries with a focus on North American distribution. The organization’s operational architecture is backed by an industrial network of 30 production facilities and a product development framework. To maintain catalog agility, the company allocates resources toward continuous R&D cycles, with recent product launches driving over 22% of its total revenue. Additionally, the firm integrates environmental sustainability mandates into its operational model, targeting the transition toward carbon-neutral manufacturing lines and the increased use of renewable energy sources across its facilities.
