Fortifi Food Processing Solutions, a global leader in food processing automation and related software, has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Provisur Technologies, a leading provider of further processing solutions to the protein industry. The acquisition reflects Fortifi’s broader strategy to offer complete, full-line solutions that include best-in-class automation, robotics and software capabilities. 

“This is a pivotal moment for our organization and our valued customers,” said Massimo Bizzi, CEO of Fortifi. “We look forward to joining forces with Provisur as we strengthen our product breadth across the protein value chain and continue to grow together. By extending our application expertise and growing our operating footprint, we will be able to improve customer experience and outcomes.”

The Provisur acquisition deepens Fortifi’s capabilities in downstream protein processing, bringing advanced solutions in grinding, forming, slicing and tumbling technologies. Provisur’s family of trusted brands, which includes AM2C, Beehive, Cashin, Formax, Hoegger, Lutetia and Weiler, complement Fortifi’s existing product technologies and enhance its ability to deliver integrated solutions to food processing customers around the world.

The strategic partnership also strengthens Fortifi’s aftermarket capabilities, broadening customer access to parts, service and technical expertise across a large and diverse installed base and network of service technicians. Provisur’s established support network and deep customer relationships will increase Fortifi's ability to deliver ongoing performance improvements, reduce customer factory downtime and extend equipment lifespan, which reflects the company’s long-term commitment to full lifecycle value and partnership.

“We are proud of what Provisur has built over the years – a company shaped by innovation, customer commitment and technical excellence,” said Brian Perkins, president of Provisur Technologies. “Becoming part of Fortifi marks a meaningful new chapter for us, and one that expands the reach of our business and accelerates our shared vision for the future of food processing.” 

Upon completion of the acquisition, Provisur employees will join Fortifi’s broad-based ownership program, which provides all employees with the opportunity to participate in the benefits of equity ownership.

The acquisition is subject to standard regulatory approvals and is expected to close in the fourth quarter.
