Sablé-sur-Sarthe, 28 May 2025



Completion of the acquisition of the Pierre Martinet Group




Sablé-sur-Sarthe - LDC (FRFR0013204336 - LOUP) announces the acquisition of 100% of the capital of
the Pierre Martinet Group, "Le Traiteur Intraitable", as of 28 May 2025.

This announcement follows the one made on 17 April 2025, when LDC announced that it had received
approval from the competition authority for the acquisition of the Pierre Martinet Group.

This transaction enables LDC to be present in 70% of the product families in supermarket and
hypermarket convenience food departments, drawing on a strong new brand alongside the Marie
brand. The completion of this transaction thus enhances the Group's convenience food offering by
introducing fresh salads and other plant-based recipes, as outlined in the 2026-2027 strategic plan.

Philippe Gélin, Chairman of the Management Board of LDC, stated: "With Pierre Martinet, LDC is
integrating a strong new brand with values that are in all respects consistent with those of the Group's
commitment to naturalness and healthy eating for all consumers. We are very pleased to finalise this
pivotal transaction for the convenience food division, fully aligned with the 2026-2027 development
plan. We are pleased to have now among our teams the 700 employees of the Pierre Martinet Group,
who will bring their know-how and expertise to enhance our experience."

Christophe Guyony, Director of the convenience food division of the LDC Group, added: "Following
Marie in 2009, the acquisition of the Pierre Martinet Group marks another important step in the growth
of the division, which now has a high-quality plant-based offering. With this new high-value asset, LDC
now offers the most extensive range in the fresh convenience food aisle."

Pierre Martinet, founder of the Pierre Martinet Group, concludes: "I founded this brand, which has
become iconic and dear to French consumers over nearly 60 years. It's a wonderful story that I'm
particularly proud of! Today, a new chapter begins, and it is now up to LDC to uphold the quality and
excellence of the Pierre Martinet Group's products for the benefit of all consumers. I'm convinced that
'Le Traiteur Intraitable' and its teams are in good hands."

With more than 700 employees spread over five production sites in France, the Pierre Martinet Group
generated revenue of around €231m in 2024.
