Following the acquisition of the investment fund that bought the Pacha Group from Ricardo Urgell (Trilantic) by Five Holdings in October 2023, the year 2024 has left figures in three areas that reflect the change of direction of the iconic brand of cherries. Thus, the Pacha Group has increased the resources allocated to the Pacha Foundation by 350%, has made an unprecedented commitment to the sustainability of its establishments and has strengthened the staff incentive program.

Not surprisingly, in a statement, the Pacha Group points out that “its true strength lies in its people”, which has led it to implement “innovative initiatives that place the well-being of its employees at the center of its mission”.

Thus, the Pacha Group has emphasized that “by implementing policies that prioritize employee benefits, the group fosters a culture of recognition and inclusion.”
