Cremonini Group forecasts €6.8 billion in revenue this year
The Cremonini Group expects about €6.8 billion in revenue this year, up from €6.429 billion in 2025.
The Italian group makes and processes meat, supplies food and runs restaurants, including Chef Express and Roadhouse, and operates in 70 countries.
It expects to reach €7 billion in revenue in 2027 and about €7.5 billion in 2028.
After investing around €350 million in 2025 and 2026, the group plans another €350 million over the next two years.
Chief executive Vincenzo Cremonini says high energy costs are a major problem for its factories, refrigerated warehouses and restaurants, and could push its operating margin below the 2025 level.
A truckers’ protest disrupted deliveries to Sicily and Calabria in October, leaving some products unavailable and a Roadhouse restaurant in Catania out of stock.
Five members of the family’s third generation, aged 28 to 35, already have management roles as they prepare to lead the business.
