Mutares to Sell Controlling Stake in Lapeyre Group

Mutares SE & Co. KGaA has received an irrevocable offer for the purchase of a controlling stake in Lapeyre Group. The potential buyer is an investment vehicle backed by Italian entrepreneurs with experience in the home-improvement and retail sectors. The transaction, anticipated to close in Q4 2026, remains subject to customary employee representative opinions.

Lapeyre, based in Courbevoie, France, is a leading manufacturer and distributor in the home-improvement market, with revenues of approximately EUR 475 million in 2025. Mutares acquired Lapeyre in 2021 and has been investing in its industrial and distribution networks. After the sale, Mutares will maintain a minority stake in Lapeyre, continuing to support its turnaround.

The new ownership aligns with shareholders from Bricofer and Conforama Italia, potentially leveraging synergies across furniture and home-improvement sectors. This step complements Mutares’ strategy to focus on sectors like Chemicals, Energy, and Infrastructure.
