Consumer food and distribution

With a presence at every stage of the value chain, Sofiprotéol supports food processing companies in order to valorize the use of French agricultural products, with the aim of building a network promoting healthy, sustainable food.

Investments in food industry players of all sizes

We work with players of all sizes, from small and medium-sized companies to large groups, to support the stakeholders in our sectors. Why? These companies contribute to the vitality of their territories, to the development of local industries, and they aim to offer food of high quality, that is affordable to all.

Healthy, sustainable, affordable food connected to the upstream production

Our vision of the food industry is one of close ties with farmers, integrated into its local ecosystem, and attentive to consumers expectations. Sofiprotéol’s investments are geared towards a healthy, sustainable food supply that is connected to its upstream agriculture.
As an active minority investor, we support our partners by sharing with them a long-term vision of the value chain, from upstream to downstream, from the farm to the food of tomorrow.

Sofiprotéol brings its agricultural roots, its knowledge of the industry from seed-bearers to consumers, and its connections with its network of partners to actively contribute to strategic thinking and support development projects.

Within this framework, Sofiprotéol accompanied the LSDH Group, the French market leader in plant-based beverages, in its project to create the INOVé workshop, a plant-based juice extraction unit. This unit seeks to use and develop French supply chains, with the establishment of upstream partnerships with French farmers.

We are very pleased with this investment in Atelier INOVé, alongside the LSDH Group, that aims to develop an industrial tool dedicated to plant extraction. Sofiprotéol’s commitment to developing local innovative industries is fully in line with our Group’s purpose and action, Serving the Earth.
