In 2008 Imperial Tobacco Group (now Imperial Brands)[6] acquires Grupo Logista, maintaining independent management of the company.[7]

In 2014 the Compañía de Distribución Integral Logista Holdings, S.A.U (Grupo Logista), parent company of the Compañía de Distribución Integral Logista S.A.U Operating Company[8] (former Group's parent company) was created. Logista began trading on Spanish stock exchanges[9] on July 14, 2014 at a price of €13 per share and is part of the IBEX Medium Cap®.[10]

gollark: Yep!
gollark: Gold is not *that* useful practically, being just a shiny metal which doesn't tarnish and has quite high conductivity.
