Kofola (ISIN CZ0009000121) announced on September 15, 2026, that it would acquire a 51 percent stake in Chachar catering, adding a pub and restaurant franchise to its beverage portfolio, according to Kofola. The transaction gives the group exposure to the Chacharova Hasicarna concept while extending its strategy beyond packaged drinks.

Three dated steps in expansion

Kofola's recent chronology shows a broader growth plan. On September 1, 2026, its subsidiary European Healing Waters completed the acquisition of the business enterprise of Bohemia Healing Marienbad Waters, as reported by Kofola. On September 3, 2026, the company reported six-month EBITDA growth of 16 percent and revenue growth of 7.7 percent. On September 15, 2026, it announced the 51 percent Chachar stake, the latest of the three dated events.

What does 16 percent growth mean?

The operating figures give the Chachar announcement a stronger financial backdrop. Kofola's first-half 2026 revenue rose 7.7 percent, while EBITDA increased 16 percent, according to the company's investor materials dated September 3, 2026. The combination points to a business building growth through both established beverage operations and adjacent food-service activities.

The company operates across Central and Eastern Europe and manufactures products at 15 production facilities, according to Kofola. Its portfolio includes Kofola, Vinea, Rajec, Radenska, UGO, LEROS and Semtex. That mix gives the group several channels for distribution, although the Chachar deal adds a different operating model from the core beverage business.

Prague valuation stays in view

Kofola was last at CZK 503.00 on the Prague Stock Exchange on October 22, 2026 at 4:07 p.m. CEST. The same dated market context places its market capitalization at CZK 10.7 billion and its 52-week range at CZK 446.00 to CZK 531.00. Kofola's official stock information identifies KOFOL as the Prague Stock Exchange ticker and confirms the ISIN.

The next investor focus is how the new hospitality exposure develops alongside the beverage portfolio and whether the recent operating growth continues beyond the summer season.
