the needs of the fruit and vegetable sector. This operation enriches the offer of Orisha's Agri-Food Business Unit, only 3 months after its creation following the acquisition of Gaïana, the company dedicated to the wine and spirits, horticulture and agriculture sectors.

Founded in 2000, Gregal is renowned for its innovative solutions and in-depth expertise in the agri-food sector. With this acquisition, Orisha expands its portfolio of products and services, while benefiting from Gregal's technological know-how and its strong customer base in the Iberian Peninsula. In 2023, Orisha reorganised its activities into Business Units. The acquisition of Gregal would thus consolidate Orisha's Agri-Food Business Unit offering. This acquisition is part of Orisha's organic and external growth strategy, with the objective of becoming the undisputed leader in the European business management software market.

With the integration of Gregal, Orisha not only strengthens its presence in Spain, but also its capacity to provide solutions adapted to local specificities, particularly in the agri-food sector where Gregal stands out. Jairo Hernández Salvador, CEO of Gregal said: ‘For Gregal, this integration with Orisha allows us to consolidate the strategy we have as a company in terms of product evolution, internationalisation and improvement of the value proposition for the market; it confirms our commitment to lead innovation and provide better solutions to our present and future customers. We are convinced that this union will allow us to generate numerous synergies with the group's teams and will ensure the development of our offer, both for our customers and our staff, in order to enrich the group's portfolio of solutions. ’

Jacques Ollivier, CEO of Orisha, says: ‘We are delighted to welcome the Gregal teams to Orisha. This operation marks a further important step in our European expansion. Beyond geographical expansion, Gregal brings us valuable expertise and technology that strengthens our Orisha Agri-food division, in particular by extending its activity to the horticultural sector. Together we can offer increasingly efficient solutions in the service of very sectoral activities, which, let's remember, is the main mission of the Orisha group’.
