Zurich-based Gategroup, a leading air transport caterer, is considering a new public listing to fuel growth. It reported preliminary 2025 revenue of €5.61 billion and EBITDA of €467 million, both showing modest improvements year‑on‑year.
Zurich, March 25 (Reuters) - Air transport caterer Gategroup is considering going public to support further growth, the Swiss company said on Wednesday.
The firm said it is evaluating a range of strategic options but no decision has been made, it said in a statement.
Gategroup delivers food and retail services to over 300 global aviation customers. A previous listing on Switzerland's SIX stock exchange in 2009 ended in 2017 because of a takeover by China's HNA Group.
The Zurich-based company also released preliminary figures for 2025, with its revenue reaching 5.61 billion euros ($6.51 billion), up slightly from 5.47 billion euros in 2024.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) increased to 467 million euros from 410 million euros the previous year, the company said.
