Advised FrenchFood Capital on its acquisition of a stake in Sopano

Moncey Avocats advised FrenchFood Capital, a management company specializing in the development of the food and agricultural sectors, on its acquisition of a stake in Sopano, a French company specializing in the design, manufacture, and distribution of adhesive labels for the agri-food industry and mass retail.

Since its takeover in 2020 by Laurent Charbonneau and the NCI fund, Sopano has doubled its turnover to €35 million and now operates from two industrial sites. The group is strongly committed to innovation, quality, and environmental protection.

Thanks to the entry of FrenchFood Capital into its capital, accompanied by four regional investors, Sopano now has the necessary resources to accelerate its growth. Its priorities include geographical expansion in France and internationally, the development of new business segments, the technological reinforcement of its industrial tools, and product innovation to improve technical capabilities and reduce its environmental footprint.

FrenchFood Capital was advised by a team from Moncey Avocats composed of:

  • Marie-Victoire James, partner, Alexandre Bankowski, counsel, and Alix Auclair, attorney, on corporate matters.
  • Jonathan Devillard, counsel, and Hélène Tazé, attorney, on financing matters.
  • Frédéric Bosc, partner, and Loïc Pipaud, attorney, on tax matters.
  • Camille Cournot, partner, and Alexandra Fabbro, attorney on labour law aspects.
