Compagnia del Gusto Acquires Wine Delivery Platform Winelivery
Italian food-and-drinks group Compagnia del Gusto Holding has acquired local wine delivery platform Winelivery. The acquisition is part of the company's ongoing strategy to expand through targeted acquisitions, with financial terms not disclosed. Ettore Nicoletto, CEO of CDGH, emphasized that this move aligns with an industrial function rather than just scale expansion. Winelivery operates a vertical model combining digital ordering and physical logistics across over 60 Italian cities, delivering beverages in under 30 minutes. It will be integrated into Compagnia delle Vigne, supporting the wine division initially but expected to benefit other product categories as well. The acquisition follows recent purchases of UK wine merchant Jascots, Cantine Romagnoli winery, and biscuit brand Krumiri Rossi. Managed by the Cosulich family since its 2024 founding, CDGH continues scaling through strategic acquisitions aimed at strengthening digital capabilities and expanding market presence in both Italy and international markets.
