Effective 1 July 2026, TEFCOLD has acquired the HoReCa-related business assets of Clima Hosteleria — the tenth acquisition in the TEFCOLD Group since 2018.

We are proud to announce that the TEFCOLD Group has been expanded to include Clima Hosteleria's HoReCa Business.

Earlier this week, TEFCOLD's owner travelled to Barcelona to sign an agreement bringing another company into the TEFCOLD Group: Clima Hosteleria, headquartered in Badajoz, close to the Portuguese border. Effective 1 July 2026, TEFCOLD has acquired the HoReCa-related business assets of Clima Hosteleria — the tenth acquisition in the TEFCOLD Group since 2018.

This deal means that we nearly double our market share in Spain and Portugal — We significantly strengthen TEFCOLD's position as a leading supplier of commercial plug-in refrigeration not only on the Iberian Peninsula, but in Europe in general.

While the acquisition's most visible impact is in Spain and Portugal, its significance reaches well beyond the Iberian Peninsula. Beyond strengthening TEFCOLD's ability to serve customers in Spain and Portugal, the addition of Clima Hosteleria also makes TEFCOLD a stronger supplier in all its other markets: the deal expands TEFCOLD's product assortment and deepens its relationships with manufacturers, assets the whole group can draw on — not just its Iberian operations.

Clima Hosteleria has built a strong position in the Spanish HoReCa market, supplying both commercial refrigeration and a broad range of hospitality equipment. The company brings 22 employees into the TEFCOLD Group, bringing TEFCOLD's total headcount across Europe to 230. With the acquisition, TEFCOLD gains a sales force that effectively covers all of Spain and Portugal.

"The addition of Clima Hosteleria will strengthen TEFCOLD Iberia and enable us to serve our customers even better, faster and more competitively across Spain and Portugal," says Silvia Ramis, Managing Director of TEFCOLD Iberia. "We have known Clima Hosteleria for many years and are excited to welcome both the team and the product portfolio into TEFCOLD. Together, we will further strengthen our position in one of Europe's most important markets."

"One must remember that Spain and Portugal together cover an area more than thirteen times the size of Denmark, with a population around ten times larger," adds Jesper Kirkeby Hansen, CEO of TEFCOLD Group. "That requires a relatively large organisation to stay close to all our customers."

Founded in 2011 by Nacho Rodrigues and Francisco Lara, Clima Hosteleria has grown into a respected player within the Spanish HoReCa sector over the past fifteen years.

"I am extremely proud of what we have built over the past fifteen years," says Nacho Rodrigues, co-owner of Clima Hosteleria. "It has been a fantastic journey together with our employees, customers and suppliers. Today, I believe the business is best positioned for continued growth as part of a larger organisation with greater purchasing power, stronger logistics capabilities and additional resources."

"We believe the combination of acquisitions and organic growth serves us well," says Torben Christensen, Chairman, TEFCOLD Group. "Acquisitions give us quick access to a market, and they also give us access to, and relationships with, new and exciting manufacturers that we can build on across the rest of the group — making it easier for us to grow organically everywhere we operate."

The acquisition follows TEFCOLD's successful integration of Horeca Global Solutions, acquired in 2024.

"Following the successful turnaround of Horeca Global Solutions, we are pleased to take another major step forward in this strategically important market," says Jesper Hansen. "In addition to welcoming a highly skilled team, we are expanding our product offering in Spain and further strengthening our market position. We see significant opportunities for future growth."

"We are delighted to welcome Clima Hosteleria to the TEFCOLD Group," adds Torben Christensen. "Acquisitions are an important part of our growth strategy, and identifying the right companies and teams remains critical to our long-term success. Reaching our tenth acquisition since 2018 is a proud milestone for everyone who has helped build TEFCOLD."

The acquisition takes effect on 1 July 2026 and will therefore not affect the financial results TEFCOLD has just closed.
