EOL, France's leading logistics and industrial property consultancy, enters a new phase in its development with the integration of the Italian DILS Group.

Dils is continuing its international expansion with the aim of becoming an independent and innovative player on a European
scale. Having exceeded €100 million in turnover in 2025, the Group now operates in five European countries thanks to its partnership with EOL
Milan – Paris, 9 March 2026 – Dils announces its entry into the French market with the acquisition of EOL, a leading property consultancy with over 25 years’ experience and a solid track record in the industrial and logistics property market, bolstered by a high-performing and well-established retail division.
Founded in 2000, EOL handles an average of nearly one million square metres of transactions each year and completes more than 300 deals annually. The company is supported by a team of 70 professionals spread across 10 offices located in the heart of France’s major cities. In 2025, EOL exceeded €15 million in turnover.
This transaction forms part of Dils’ broader European expansion strategy – the company already has a presence in the Netherlands, Portugal and Spain – and confirms the strength of a business model developed in Italy and successfully exported internationally.
Dils plans a significant investment programme in France aimed at accelerating growth and strengthening innovation in the logistics sector, whilst gradually expanding its business into other asset classes such as offices, hotels and residential property. The strategy is based on attracting the best talent in the market. The aim is to create an integrated service platform, based in Paris, which could bring together around 250 professionals over the next five years and generate annual revenue of around €60 million.
EOL’s management, organisation and teams remain unchanged. This strategic shift in no way affects the quality of the support provided, the availability of the teams or client relations. On the contrary, joining DILS is a new driver of performance.
The French property investment market (all segments combined) grew by 10% in 2025 compared with the previous year, reaching a total volume of around €19.4 billion. Offices remain the main asset class in terms of investment volume, with nearly €7 billion, buoyed by a particularly dynamic fourth quarter. The logistics and residential segments follow, accounting for €3 billion and €4 billion of investment volume respectively.
In the logistics sector, take-up reached approximately 3.2 million square metres. The Île-de-France region accounted for the bulk of transactions in 2025, followed by Hauts-de-France (Lille) and Centre-Val de Loire (Orléans), dynamic regions driven in particular by growth in e-commerce and the industrial sector.
In the office sector, the Paris–Île-de-France market confirmed its position as the leading hub in continental Europe, with take-up of around 1.6 million square metres in 2025.
Through EOL, Dils is continuing its expansion into the European market, which began in 2023 with an initial partnership with the Dutch firm Van Gool Elburg. This momentum continued in 2024 with a presence in Portugal alongside Castelhana, and then in 2025 in Spain with Lucas Fox, two major players in the residential sector in their respective markets.
In 2025, the Group, which now employs nearly 700 professionals, continued its sustained growth trajectory, exceeding €100 million in consolidated turnover and confirming the resilience of a diversified business model across all its key markets. Profitability remained strong, with a positive EBITDA performance reflecting rigorous cost management and the scalability of the platform. These results reinforce the Group’s strategic positioning and provide an ideal foundation for accelerating international development, consolidating market leadership and supporting expansion into other countries, with a pipeline including Germany, Poland and the United Kingdom.
Giuseppe Amitrano, Founder and Group CEO of Dils, said:
“We are very proud to welcome the outstanding team at EOL into our Group; they are a recognised leader in their field with a solid track record. This transaction marks a new stage in our internationalisation strategy and strengthens a European network built over the past few years on solid industrial and strategic foundations. Exceeding the €100 million turnover threshold a year ahead of our targets set for 2021 demonstrates the effectiveness of our model and supports our ambition to consolidate Dils’ position as a leading European player in real estate.”
Laurent Sabatucci, CEO of EOL, added:
“ This is a historic milestone for EOL, following 25 years of an exceptional journey that has enabled us to become a key player in commercial real estate.
We are now joining the Dils Group, which is expanding across Europe in a structured manner, drawing on a broad spectrum of expertise.
This strategy aligns with our desire to support our clients at a European level.
We share the same values: team spirit, a close relationship with clients, and a desire to offer bespoke solutions based on in-depth market knowledge.
A new phase of growth and innovation is beginning for all EOL employees and partners, and we thank Dils for their trust.”
