Frit Ravich to Invest €115 Million to Expand Production and Scale Up

Frit Ravich plans to invest €115 million in a major expansion of its production and distribution operations, aiming to nearly double its manufacturing capacity by 2030 and reach €600 million in revenue.

The Girona-based company, which makes potato chips, snacks and nuts, will build a new 33,000-square-meter plant in Maçanet de la Selva. Construction is due to begin in 2027 on land next to the company’s headquarters. The facility will produce potato chips and popcorn.

The new plant will help double production capacity by the end of the decade. The company says capacity could reach four times its current level by 2050. The project is expected to create about 500 jobs in the coming years, bringing the workforce to roughly 2,000 people.

Frit Ravich’s existing 26,000-square-meter plant will continue to focus on nuts. The family-owned company recorded €359 million in revenue last year, making its €600 million target about 70% higher than its current level.

The investment plan also includes a distribution center in Madrid to improve logistics and service in central and southern Spain. “This new infrastructure represents Frit Ravich’s vision for the future. Expanding our production capacity is essential to respond better to our customers, strengthen our brands and reinforce our dual role as a leading manufacturer and distributor,” general director Judith Viader said. The company said technology upgrades would strengthen capacity, efficiency and competitiveness.
