Upon acquiring FIBA-PROM, Studenac merged with it, according to court registry data. The commercial court of Zagreb registered the changes on June 5.
The value of the deal was not disclosed.
FIBA-PROM reported an annual revenue of 18.4 million euro ($19.7 million) in 2023, up from 17.8 million euro in 2022, according to data by business information provider Dun & Bradstreet.
Studenac said on Tuesday it plans to open a new distribution centre next year. The company more than tripled its store network in almost six years, expanding throughout the country via a combination of organic growth and acquisitions, it added.
Polish private equity fund manager Enterprise Investors acquired Omis-based Studenac in August 2018 from its founder Josip Milavic. At the time the chain had more than 380 shops located predominantly on the Croatian coastline and islands, with a hub in Dalmatia. Since then, the Polish company has invested over 260 million euro in the company, Studenac said earlier.
