CEFA Industries

CEFA Industries is the first investment of Colombus 1, but also the first capital opening carried out by the Raji family, which is a historical and major player in the production and distribution of consumer goods in Morocco. CEFA Industries offers a wide range of couscous and pasta products, which it sells under two well-established reference brands on the Moroccan market for over 30 years, namely “Amgalita” and “Monte Regale”. The project consists of investing in the industrial upstream in order to maximize the capture of added value at the national level, as well as in the development of new high-value products.

Brior

The Brior Group, founded and led by the Ladnany family since 1949, and one of the historical leaders in the paper hygiene sector with its brands “Fancy” and “Bravo”, welcomes to its shareholding structure Colombus 1, an OPCC fund managed by Red Med Private Equity.

With its industrial expertise in the paper hygiene products sector, the Group wishes to strengthen its production capabilities and improve its operational efficiency through investments aimed at enhancing industrial competitiveness. The partnership also aims to capitalize on the Group’s position as a reference distributor for Moroccan and international brands with extensive national coverage, and thus develop the Group’s product portfolio for greater commercial impact.

Through this partnership, Colombus1 intends to support the Group in its institutionalization as well as in its transition towards a management model that adheres to the highest standards.

Eriser

The ERISER company, founded and managed by the Seffar family since 1992, and a pioneer in the irrigation business, welcomes in its round of funding the Colombus 1 fund, an OPCC fund managed by Red Med Private Equity.
For more than 32 years, ERISER has established itself as a key player in water management and wishes to continue its development through the strengthening of its capital by welcoming into its round table the Colombus 1 fund which will enable the company to address the water value chain by providing it with financial, industrial and technological capacities allowing it to strengthen its national and regional presence in the areas of localized irrigation, drinking water management, equipment hydromechanical systems and solar pumping and desalination stations. The company also intends to strengthen its industrial integration through the manufacturing of technical equipment, in order to improve its degree of autonomy and address a broader spectrum of hydraulic and water projects.
Through this partnership, Colombus1 intends to support ERISER in its institutionalization process, while consolidating its DNA as an eco-responsible and socially engaged company.
