Rafael Padilla, CEO of Fagron:

“We have delivered robust results in the first quarter of 2022 through organic growth and M&A activities even though we are in the midst of an unpredictable operating environment given the lingering impact from COVID, ongoing supply chain challenges as well as rising inflation.

In line with our disciplined acquisition strategy, we completed three acquisitions in the first quarter of this year with a view to solidifying our position in key European markets. We also strengthened our position in North America with the acquisition of Letco, the integration of which is progressing as planned. We remain committed to further consolidating the market and adding capabilities to Fagron through a rigorous assessment of market opportunities.
