Italpol was assisted by K Finance (Clairfield Italy) as financial advisor, with a team composed by Silverio Davoli and Stefano Libera and, for contractual, legal, accounting & tax assistance, by Studio Salvador Tributario e Societario (Dr. Fausto Salvador) and Studio Legale Carano (Avv. Marilda Bertoli). The Mondialpol Group was assisted by Studio Carone Commerciale Tributario Legale as contractual, financial and legal advisor.

“With this transaction – as commented by Giovanni Claudio Magon (founder and owner of Italpol) and Fabio Mura (owner, with Marco Mura, of Mondialpol Group) – we caught a great opportunity to increase the regional market share. Not by chance, the territorial penetration of Italpol, together with the nationwide full coverage of Mondialpol, makes even more effective both the quality and size growth and the range of services to clients.”

The company

The Mondialpol Group, a historical and strongly-established brand in Security Services and Cash Handling in Italy – through its subsidiary Vedetta2Mondialpol S.p.A. – and the company Italpol Group, regional leader for Security Services in the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region of Northern Italy, have completed a project of industrial integration between the two groups, by transferring the business unit of Italpol to Vedetta2Mondialpol.

Because Italpol has a history of success as regional leader, even against much larger competitors, the brand and management team of Italpol will remain active for the business.
Italpol Group has approximately 200 employees and sales of € 10 m, with an EBITDA margin above 12%, which is remarkable for this industry in relation to service mix and size.
Mondialpol Group, already present in Friuli-Venezia Giulia, has approximately 2700
direct employees and 1300 indirect; 2018 consolidated sales approximately € 200 m and
aggregate 270 m.
