Headquartered in Murcia (Spain) and selling in more than 100 countries, Iberchem has a unique and
particularly fast-to-customer business model, with strong local sales & development
teams and 11 manufacturing facilities across the world including in Spain, China, Indonesia, Colombia
and Tunisia. Iberchem serves the Hygiene and Personal Care (“HPC”) industry through its fragrances
division and the Food and Beverages (“F&B”) industry through its flavors division, Scentium.
Thanks to a very diversified customer base of more than 3,400 customers, mainly leading
local and regional consumer brands, Iberchem benefits from the growth of the world’s
population as well as the rise of the middle class in emerging market countries to drive its superior organic growth.
Since its creation in 1985 by Ramon Fernandez, its current CEO, Iberchem has enjoyed a solid and uninterrupted double-digit organic growth. From 2012 to 2016, sales grew by 18% per annum. As of May 2017, the company generated LTM sales of 117m€, c. 25m€ of EBITDA and c.23m € of EBITA.
Eurazeo will support Iberchem’s management team in the next phase of the development of the
company while preserving its unique DNA as the leading supplier of value for money fragrances and
flavors ingredients for local brands in the emerging markets.
