Pressoirs Coquard is a company founded in 1924 in Reims specialising in the design, manufacture and maintenance of state-of-the-art hydraulic presses and wine presses.

Pressoirs Coquard has been an institution in Champagne and an iconic brand for over 100 years. The customer portfolio, made up of the world’s most prestigious Grandes Maisons de Champagne (Laurent Perrier, Louis Roederer, Bolinger, Veuve Clicquot, etc) reinforces the Company’s international reputation.

The only wine press in the world adapted to the new climatic constraints, the Coquard inclined plate automatic wine press (PAI) is a unique reference in the wine industry. The Company has distinguished itself through the quality of its presses and its ongoing commitment to innovation.

The Company, whose sales have been growing steadily since 2021, should achieve sales of around €8m by 30/09/2024 and also has excellent visibility for the 2025 financial year.

Pressoirs Coquard relies on a loyal and skilled team of 25 people.

Omnia Technologies is recognised as a global player in the design and manufacture of automation, bottling, packaging and integrated production line technologies for the beverage and pharmaceutical sectors.

Born from the merger of Della Toffola, TMCI Padovan and Bertolaso, Omnia Technologies brings together a team of over 2,400 employees, has 36 production sites, 24 sales offices around the world and consolidated sales of over €700m. Omnia Technologies is controlled by Investindustrial, a leading European investment company.

With this acquisition, Omnia Technologies acquires its first manufacturing plant outside Italy. This is an important step in the expansion of its presence in the French market, particularly in the champagne industry.

Jean-Pierre MASSET, Chairman of Pressoirs Coquard, commented:

“The whole SOCIETEX team provided perfect support from the beginning to the end of the operation, very professional but also friendly, to ensure that the sale of our company was carried out under the best possible conditions and negotiated at the best sale price, all in less than six months, which exceeded all our expectations. There’s only one word to sum up the work accomplished by the whole SOCIETEX team: Bravo!”
