Henkell Freixenet takes on full control of Freixenet
Henkell Freixenet has completed its takeover of Freixenet, acquiring the remaining shares from the Ferrer family and José Luis Bonet to gain 100% control of the world's leading sparkling wine producer. The deal concludes eight years of partnership that began with a 50/50 joint venture in 2018, though the founding families will stay involved as honorary presidents. It's a significant moment for the Spanish wine industry, showing how family-owned wine businesses are adapting to global market pressures whilst preserving their heritage.
