ISA - Industria Servizi Agroalimentari

ISA S.p.A. – Industria Servizi Agroalimentari is an Italian wholesale distributor headquartered in Villacidro, Sardinia. Its core business is supplying retail outlets across the Sardinia region with food and non-food products for private consumption. In addition to wholesale distribution, ISA provides centralized services to its affiliated partners and operates its own retail chain as well as several production facilities. The ISA Group runs 53 own stores and 400 affiliated shops, and in 2006 generated revenue of 227 million euros. The company traces its origins to the entrepreneurial activities of Giovanni Muscas, who began reselling fruit and vegetables in the mid-1960s. In the early 1980s he expanded into wholesale by building a distribution and goods warehouse. A major growth spurt came with the acquisition of Industria Sarda Agroalimentari s.r.l., which in 1992 was renamed and converted into the joint-stock company ISA S.p.A. – Industria Servizi Agroalimentari. Between 1999 and 2002 Muscas took over several food-industry production plants. The group now comprises 19 companies. ISA operates as a private company and remains closely associated with its founder and owner, Giovanni Muscas. Its integrated model combines wholesale logistics, centralized services for affiliated retailers, a proprietary retail network, and food production, giving it a significant presence in the Sardinian grocery and consumer-goods market.
