All Brands Owned by Sodalis Group

Who owns Sodalis Group?
Sodalis Group is privately owned by the Granata family. Fabio Granata founded the company in 1990 and continues to serve as CEO. The family has maintained full ownership throughout the group 34-year history and has never taken outside private equity investment. This is unusual for a consumer products company of Sodalis size, which reported approximately EUR 813 million in net sales in FY2024 and employs approximately 1,749 people.

What brands does Sodalis Group own?
Sodalis Group owns over 20 power brands across personal care, health, beauty, and household products. Key brands include Tesori d'Oriente, Zest, Lycia, Neutro Roberts, Vidal, BioNike, ESI, Deborah Milano, Artdeco, Biopoint, L'Arbre Vert, and Noxzema. The portfolio includes brands acquired from global corporations like Procter and Gamble, as well as brands built organically by Sodalis. The HRB acquisition in 2024 added ten North American brands including Zest, Sure, Pert, and VO5.

How much revenue does Sodalis Group generate?
Sodalis Group reported net sales of approximately EUR 813 million in FY2024, up 17 percent from EUR 694 million in FY2023. The compound annual growth rate since 2018 is 14 percent. After the acquisition of High Ridge Brands in late 2024, which added approximately EUR 200 million in annual net sales, the group exceeded EUR 1 billion in total net sales. These figures are reported in the group consolidated sustainability report and should be considered approximate for a private company.

When did Sodalis acquire the Zest brand?

The deal was reported at approximately $200 million.
