Nuzoa Amplifies PAI Partners' Footprint in Iberian Animal Health Sector

In a strategic move to expand its presence in the animal health sector, PAI Partners has acquired Nuzoa, the leading animal health platform in the Iberian Peninsula, from Abac Capital. The acquisition was facilitated by Lincoln International and executed through a competitive process. Established in 2020, Nuzoa serves a diverse clientele of 17,000 veterinarians, livestock owners, and pet retailers. It provides an extensive array of products and services, including pharmaceuticals, equipment, pet food, and accessories. The company also boasts a robust logistical network throughout Spain and offers digital tools and lab services for veterinary clinics. Nuzoa’s growth trajectory has been bolstered by sectoral trends like increasing pet ownership and rising expenditures on pet health and wellness. This acquisition not only enhances PAI’s leadership in the Iberian market but also positions Nuzoa for potential international growth. On the other hand, Abac Capital remains committed to investing in medium-sized companies with high growth potential, reinforcing its long-term value creation strategy. Iñigo González de Castejón, Managing Director at Lincoln International, highlighted the opportunity for Nuzoa to expand into a pan-European platform with PAI’s support.
