FIDEA acted as an exclusive financial advisor to Bayleg S.A. and its shareholders on a sale to a strategic investor – Alliando Group, a major European player in the distribution of veterinary products.

Bayleg is the 2nd largest distributor of veterinary products in Poland, which offers more than 12 000 products, present on market for almost 30 years. The acquisition will allow Alliando to expand its European footprint and gain a market-leading position in Poland, while reinforcing the company’s growth plans for Eastern Europe in its core veterinary distribution segment.

I am delighted that Bayleg is joining the Alliando Group, one of the leading distributors of veterinary products in Europe. Bayleg’s further dynamic development will be strengthened by the identified synergies. The family management approach of the Alliando Group, embodied by Jacques and Diego Mignot are consistent with the way our company is run and should be a premise for further dynamic development on the demanding market.

– said Andrzej Woźnica, President and Founder of Bayleg.

This transaction with a leading player in one of the most dynamic markets in Europe was an obvious decision for us. Moreover, Bayleg’s positioning and values are perfectly in line with our company project and will enable us to maintain the Group at a level of excellence on an international scale.

– said Diego Mignot, Managing Director of the Alliando Group.
