Wholesaler Metro plans to invest in Pro a Pro Spain as it seeks to expand its activities in food delivery services for the organised hospitality sector in the country.

The investment will see Pro a Pro extend its logistics and distribution structure across Spain to offer ‘an even better service’ to its more than 4,000 customers, the company noted.

As part of the project, Metro will construct five multi-temperature warehouses in different regions across the country.

The first warehouse is scheduled to commence operations in Andalusia as early as 2025, the company noted.

Pro a Pro Spain

Pro a Pro Spain has seen strong growth in recent years, following record sales of €40 million in its 2021/22 financial year and continued double-digit growth in the 2022/23 financial year.

The delivery specialist complements Makro Spain’s wholesale business in the growth segment of Food Service Distribution (FSD) and, like its French counterpart Pro-à-Pro France, is primarily active in the organised hospitality sector.

The consistent expansion of the FSD business in Spain aligns with the group’s sCore strategy, with which Metro seeks to expand FSD as the largest growth driver within its multichannel business model in the coming years.
