Translink Corporate Finance advised Solchem Nature in its sale to Azelis Group
Translink Corporate Finance in Spain acted as the exclusive advisor to Solchem Nature S.L. (Solchem) in its sale to Azelis Group, a reference innovation service provider in the speciality chemicals and food ingredients industry. This strategic acquisition reinforces Azelis’ presence in the Spanish nutraceuticals market.
Through this transaction, customers across Europe will benefit from access to a broader portfolio of innovative and sustainable nutraceutical solutions, drawing on the combined expertise of Solchem’s experienced team and Azelis’ global platform. The acquisition aligns with Azelis’ strategic focus on growing its market share in Spain and strengthening its nutraceutical platform across the EMEA region.
Solchem brings an established customer base of over 250 clients in the nutraceutical market, offering Azelis an expanded reach and enhanced distribution capabilities for its principals.
Founded in 1994 and based in Barcelona, Solchem initially specialised in distributing raw materials for the dietary sector. Over the years, the company has expanded its offering to include a wide range of premium ingredients and formulations tailored to the nutraceutical industry. With a dedicated team of 14 professionals, Solchem brings deep market knowledge and longstanding relationships with respected principals. Its contribution adds significant value to Azelis’ lateral value chain, creating new growth opportunities for principals and delivering an expanded product offering to customers.
Jose Manuel González, General Manager at Solchem Nature said, “Joining forces with Azelis is not only an exciting growth opportunity for Solchem, but also a natural fit. We share a strong innovation-driven culture, rooted in a commitment to excellence towards our principals and customers. We look forward to continuing our journey with Azelis to deliver the best solutions to our partners in the nutraceutical market.”
Javier Pérez, Managing Director at Azelis Iberia said, “We are excited to welcome Solchem to the Azelis team. Our combined capabilities significantly strengthen Azelis’ position in the highly attractive nutraceutical market. With common values and the same entrepreneurial and collaborative spirit, I’m convinced we will successfully continue to unlock the nutraceutical market’s untapped potential together.”
