Provisur Technologies, a Telford-based manufacturer of food processing equipment, is set to be acquired by Texas-based Fortifi Food Processing Solutions. The deal forms part of Fortifi’s plan to expand its global food processing automation capabilities.
Fortifi said that deal adds Provisur’s expertise in grinding, forming, slicing and tumbling technologies to its product range. Provisur’s wide range of brands, which includes AM2C, Beehive, Cashin, Formax, Hoegger, Lutetia and Weiler, are set to complement Fortifi’s existing offering.
Fortifi, which is a specialist in automation and software for food production, added that the deal would also strengthen its aftermarket services, providing customers with increased access to parts, technical support and service networks.
Provisur Technologies President Brian Perkins said that the takeover “marks a meaningful new chapter for us and one that expands the reach of our business and accelerates our shared vision for the future of food processing.”
Fortifi CEO Massimo Bizzi said that the deal was “a pivotal moment” for the company and its customers. He continued: “We look forward to joining forces with Provisur as we strengthen our product breadth across the protein value chain and continue to grow together.”
“By extending our application expertise and growing our operating footprint, we will be able to improve customer experience and outcomes.”
KKR partner and Fortifi board member Josh Weisenbeck commented: “Provisur brings highly respected brands and application expertise that strengthen Fortifi’s position in further processing and enhance its ability to deliver end-to-end solutions worldwide.”
Weisenbeck added that the acquisition “reflects Fortifi’s continued focus on building a diversified, global leader in food processing automation.”
The deal is expected to close during the fourth quarter of 2025, subject to regulatory approvals. Post-acquisition, Provisur’s staff will join Fortifi’s broad-based ownership program, enabling them to participate in equity ownership.
