Sale of Groupe Moine to Groupe Galilé

Largillière Finance advises

the Groupe Moine founding family on its transfer to Groupe Galilé

 

A family group specialising in the transport of hazardous materials by road and the requalification of LPG tanks, Groupe Moine joins Group Galilé

Founded in 1955 by the Moine family, Groupe Moine is a leader in services related to LPG tanks in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region thanks to its two-fold expertise:

  • Transporting LPG tanks and on-site tank servicing through the entity Moine Transport;
  • Requalification of LPG tanks and overhead and underground pressurised tanks through its entity Moine Industrie.

The Moine family (the Group’s operational shareholder) asked Largillière Finance to arrange the transfer of all its capital to an industry figure, thus securing a long-term future for the group in line with its values.

Following the process and supported by its President and Shareholder Eric Michoux, Groupe Galilé acquired all of Groupe Moine’s capital.

This acquisition allows Groupe Galilé to reinforce its industrial division, with 26 companies, 500 employees and a target of €100 million in turnover.

Sébastien Aymard, Largillière Finance Managing Partner:

“Groupe Galilé’s acquisition of Groupe Moine is very promising. Groupe Galilé will be able to keep the Moine name alive throughout the Rhône region and beyond due to its ambitions in the tank transport sector. This will secure the teams’ future, and there will be a seamless transition due to support by the outgoing managers”.
