Acquisition of three groups of leisure vehicle distributors in France
Trigano entered into exclusive negotiations for the acquisition of 70% of the capital and voting rights of the groups CLC, SLC and Loisiréo. With 44 motorhome and caravan sales outlets in France, the CLC, SLC and Loisiréo groups employ around 800 people and achieved together a turnover of around € 400 million in 2020, all three generate profits.
Taking into account the level of Trigano's sales to these distributors, the contribution of consolidated sales resulting from these acquisitions is expected to stand at roughly € 350 million. The managers of the CLC, SLC and Loisiréo would continue to lead and to develop their respective groups.
This transaction is fully in line with Trigano's development strategy through external growth. It would allow Trigano to continue its investment in the distribution of leisure vehicles in Europe and complete its customer service offering.
2020/2021 Second Quarter Sales will be released on 22 March 2021 after market closure
