Translink Corporate Finance acted as the advisor to Dispuig on its sale to Transgourmet Ibérica

Translink Corporate Finance teams in Spain and Switzerland acted as the advisor to Dispuig, a premier foodservice distributor, on its sale to Transgourmet Ibérica, a distributor of frozen and fresh food to restaurants.

Transgourmet Ibérica, dedicated to distributing products to the hospitality industry and local supermarkets, has acquired 100% of Dispuig, a food distribution company based in Girona and a benchmark in the sector. This acquisition strengthens Transgourmet Ibérica’s position in the province and reinforces its hospitality-focused business line by incorporating the talent, experience, assortment and facilities of a company with more than 80 years of service to the hospitality sector.

Dispuig brings a legacy of excellence in food distribution

Founded in Girona in 1944, Dispuig has an annual turnover of 50 million euros and a workforce of 160 people. It specialises in the distribution of fresh fish, as well as charcuterie, cheeses, meat, frozen products, desserts and coffees, among other products. Also noteworthy are its complementary services of filleting and fish preparation adapted to the demands of the hospitality industry.

Dispuig has its main facilities in Girona, where its 4,000 m² central platform and a 1,400 m² fresh fish warehouse are located. In addition, it has another warehouse in the town of Bolvir, to serve the entire Cerdanya region. Its fleet is made up of 45 vehicles dedicated to the distribution of frozen and refrigerated products, and another 25 for fresh fish, which guarantees an agile and quality service throughout the northeast of Catalonia and the south of France. This logistics network, together with the strong presence of Dispuig, will further consolidate Transgourmet as the benchmark for food distribution in the province of Girona.

The deal consolidates synergies between the two companies

Overall, the purchase offers great potential for Transgourmet, by incorporating the knowledge of a company like Dispuig, with a long and consolidated track record through its Food Service distribution offering to the hospitality industry, with Transgourmet’s experience, both in supply, logistics and services linked to distribution.

Comments from Transgourmet Ibérica

Lluís Labairu, CEO of Transgourmet Ibérica, says, “Dispuig fits 100% with our strategy, which has among its pillars the service to the hospitality industry and the supply of fresh produce. This acquisition allows us to grow hand in hand with a specialist in the sector and a leader in its region, and to reinforce our commitment to quality and proximity”.

Transgourmet’s commitment to leadership in hospitality and retail distribution

This is the third corporate operation that Transgourmet Ibérica formalises in 2025. At the beginning of the year, the company created the company Nuditrans together with Nudisco, aimed at boosting the local supermarket business in the Levante area. As a result of this alliance, two Kuups supermarkets have already been opened, in Novelda and Algemesí, which are added to the more than 30 with which Nuditrans was established.

Subsequently, Transgourmet acquired the Mallorcan group Moyà Saus, incorporating two logistics platforms, three cash & carry and a network of owned and franchised supermarkets. With this operation, the company reinforced its commitment to the development of the distribution business in the Balearic Islands.

With the purchase of Dispuig, Transgourmet Ibérica continues to advance in its strategy of leading the supply to the hospitality and local retail sectors, consolidating its proposal in the fresh produce segment.
