The Galician multinational transfers its chilled division while retaining ownership of frozen operations to focus on strategic assets following its return to profitability.

Nueva Pescanova has completed the sale of its chilled seafood business in France to the Ecuadorian group Omarsa, one of the world's leading vertically integrated producers of whiteleg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei). The transaction, advised by Antarctica Advisors, is part of a strategic asset review launched earlier this year by the seafood group—which is 98% owned by Abanca—aimed at optimizing operational efficiency after posting revenues of EUR 1.035 billion and returning to a net profit of EUR 1.1 million in its latest financial year.

Despite divesting its chilled segment, the company will retain full ownership of its frozen business in the French market, which will continue to operate through its subsidiary Pescanova France. According to financial data from 2025, the French operation generated revenues of approximately EUR 126.1 million, while registering a net loss of EUR 4.35 million. To safeguard the commercial continuity of its frozen operations, the parent group executed a partial asset contribution on August 10, 2026, transferring key assets to Pescanova France.

The agreement reached with the South American firm includes the transfer of the entire chilled division workforce. Jorge Escudero, CEO of Nueva Pescanova, emphasized that the sale marks a step forward in the group's value-creation plan, allowing it to focus resources on business lines with higher growth potential. Meanwhile, Sandro Coglitore, CEO of Omarsa Group, highlighted that the acquisition strengthens the Ecuadorian company's strategic foothold in the European seafood market, enhancing its distribution channels for foodservice and retail clients in France. With this transaction, Omarsa continues to expand its industrial footprint in Europe, following its 2025 acquisition of a 51% stake in Spanish processing firm Pescafácil.

ヌエバ・ペスカノバ、フランスのチルド事業をエクアドルのオマルサグループに売却

ガリシアの多国籍水産企業がチルド部門を譲渡、黒字化を受けて戦略的資産への集中を目的に冷凍事業の所有権を維持。

ヌエバ・ペスカノバ(Nueva Pescanova)は、フランスにおけるチルド水産物事業を、バナメイエビ(Litopenaeus vannamei)の垂直統合型生産で世界大手のひとつであるエクアドルのオマルサ(Omarsa)グループへ売却する手続きを完了しました。アンタークティカ・アドバイザーズ(Antarctica Advisors)が助言を務めた本取引は、アバンカ(Abanca)が98%の株式を保有する同水産グループが本年初頭に開始した戦略的資産見直しの一環であり、直近の決算で売上高10億3,500万ユーロを計上し、純利益110万ユーロで黒字転換を果たしたことを受け、業務効率の最適化を図るものです。

チルド部門を手放すものの、同社は仏国市場における冷凍事業の所有権を維持し、現地子会社であるペスカノバ・フランス(Pescanova France)を通じて事業を継続します。2025年の財務データによると、フランス事業は約1億2,610万ユーロの売上高を記録した一方で、435万ユーロの純損失を計上していました。冷凍製品の商業的継続性を確保するため、親会社は2026年8月10日にペスカノバ・フランスへの一部資産出資を正式に実施していました。

南米グループとの合意には、チルド部門の全従業員の雇用継承が含まれています。ヌエバ・ペスカノバの最高経営責任者(CEO)であるホルヘ・エスクデロ(Jorge Escudero)氏は、今回の売却について、成長可能性の高い事業ラインにリソースを集中させることで、同社の価値創造計画を進展させるものであると強調しました。一方、オマルサ・グループの最高経営責任者であるサンドロ・コグリトーレ(Sandro Coglitore)氏は、今回の買収がヨーロッパの水産物市場における同社の戦略的足場を固め、フランスにおけるフードサービスおよびリテール顧客向け販売網を強化するものであると述べました。本件により、オマルサは2025年にスペインのペスカファシル(Pescafácil)の株式51%を取得したのに続き、ヨーロッパでの産業基盤をさらに拡大することになります。

与这家南美企业达成的协议包含了冷藏部门全体员工的转手与聘用。Nueva Pescanova 首席执行官 Jorge Escudero 指出,本次出售是集团价值创造计划向前迈出的重要一步,使公司能够将资源集中于更具增长潜力的战略资产上。与此同时,Omarsa 集团 首席执行官 Sandro Coglitore 强调,此次收购构成了 Omarsa 进入欧洲水产品市场的战略突破,巩固了其在法国餐饮服务(foodservice)和零售(retail)领域的客户关系。通过此次交易,Omarsa 进一步扩大了其在欧洲的产业布局;此前在 2025年,该集团已成功收购西班牙 Pescafácil 公司 51% 的股权。
