SAF Aerogroup's European Expansion with Infracapital Backing

Infracapital has entered a put option agreement to acquire SAF Aerogroup, a leading European operator specializing in mission-critical aerial services such as emergency medical transport and firefighting. The investment, made through Infracapital Partners IV, aims to bolster SAF’s growth initiatives to enhance medical emergency and firefighting services in France and broaden its geographical footprint across Europe. With its headquarters in Albertville, France, SAF operates 90 aircraft from 30 bases, performs over 25,000 missions annually, and employs 550 people. This acquisition, pending regulatory and employee consultations, aligns with Infracapital’s strategic objectives of investing in vital infrastructure to support societal needs and economic growth within Europe. Infracapital co-partners with Vesper Infrastructure Partners to back SAF’s strategic imperatives, which include adapting to demographic healthcare demands and the increasing challenges posed by climate change.
