CIMA announces the acquisition of Sbarro in Mexico, one of the most globally recognized international food service brands, as part of its strategy to grow and consolidate its presence in the retail and consumer experience sector.
This acquisition represents a key step in CIMA’s evolution as a multisector conglomerate, reinforcing its presence in high-traffic locations and expanding its brand portfolio with an internationally recognized gastronomic concept known for its quality, tradition, and operational consistency.
A Global Brand Integrated into a Local Vision
Founded in the United States, Sbarro brings decades of history and presence across multiple countries, establishing itself as a global reference in New York–style pizza by the slice and casual Italian dining. Its integration into the CIMA ecosystem will accelerate its growth in Mexico under a solid operating model focused on efficiency, consumer experience, and strategic expansion.
Sbarro’s integration will be carried out while fully respecting the brand’s identity, strengthening its local operations and aligning them with the quality, service, and execution standards that define CIMA across all its business units.
Retail as an Experience, Not Just a Point of Sale
With this acquisition, CIMA reaffirms its vision of retail as a space where experience, convenience, and quality converge. The group’s Retail Division continues to evolve through concepts that connect with local consumers and travelers alike, integrating internationally recognized brands that complement its existing portfolio.
Sbarro thus becomes part of a growth strategy that prioritizes the creation of memorable experiences, operational efficiency, and the development of highly scalable concepts in Mexico.
Strategic Growth with a Long-Term Vision
The acquisition of Sbarro is part of a clear roadmap to expand and strengthen CIMA’s retail business, consolidating its position as a relevant player in the operation and development of national and international brands within the country.
CIMA will continue to evaluate opportunities that add value to its ecosystem, maintaining a vision of responsible, sustainable growth aligned with its purpose of raising Mexico’s expectations through concrete actions.
