SACRED acquired by BPIFRANCE & BNP PARIBAS DEVELOPPEMENT

FRANCE Chemicals & Materials / Material Transformation / Plastics EV 10M - 30M EUR

Context

Sacred Group has finalized a majority BIMBO, valuing the company at less than €30 million. The transaction sees industrial partner Stéphane Tortrat take a 60% stake, integrating his company Fenec into the new entity. Historical backers Bpifrance and BNP Paribas Développement remain in the capital, while former majority owner reduced his stake from 75% to 9%. The strategic rationale is to reduce Sacred’s exposure to the automotive sector by leveraging Fenec’s non-auto client base in aerospace, defense, and medical sectors. The merger creates a consolidated group with €75 million in revenue and a strong international presence (40% outside Europe). The deal was supported by senior bank debt provided by Bpifrance Financement, Crédit Agricole, and Société Générale.
