Findi Investimenti and ANMO club deal acquires majority of Gruppo Poppi

A club deal of entrepreneurs coordinated by Findi Investimenti and ANMO has acquired a majority of Gruppo Poppi, according to BeBeez, with bank pool financing. Local press reported that the club deal bought 55% and the Poppi family kept 45%, but the change in shareholding was not yet reflected in company registry records, so this could not be verified.

Gruppo Poppi was founded in 1962 in Pieve di Cento and specialises in hot forging of steel and precision mechanical components for earthmoving, agricultural machinery, automotive, transmissions, aerospace and industry. Its plants in the Ferrara and Bologna provinces had combined 2025 revenue of about €53.3 million across the three companies, and about 210 employees, per local press.

Cassa Centrale Banca acted as agent and lender alongside five other banks. Fabrizio Ragazzini structured the deal, LAW-P and Studio Borghi advised the seller, and notary Marco Orlandoni handled notarial work.
