PANTOJA Grupo Logístico is a transport and logistics group based in Santiponce (Seville), founded in 1948, with 13 entities in Spain and Portugal. Its CFO, Aitor Medina, uses Fibady to get the group consolidation without building it by hand in Excel, prepare each division's budget and let management check its own numbers.
Who is PANTOJA Grupo Logístico?
Juan Luis Pantoja started in November 1948 with his first truck. More than 75 years later, the group runs three divisions:
- Transport. Domestic and international road haulage, maritime intermodal and express pallet distribution.
- Logistics. Warehousing and distribution, with platforms in Spain and Portugal.
- Liquids. Tanker transport of fuels, food products and dry bulk.
Its headquarters are in Santiponce, with sites in Andalusia, Extremadura, the Levante, northern Spain, Catalonia, the Canary Islands and Portugal.
The problem: 13 entities and a hand-built consolidation
A group like this cannot be run from each company's books separately. Every division and every entity has its own P&L, there are transactions between group companies, and management needs a single picture.
Before Fibady, that picture was assembled in Excel every month. A controller was the bottleneck and management received the report when it was ready, not when they needed it.
How does a logistics group consolidate with Fibady?
- Connect the 13 entities. Fibady reads the books from the group's ERP every day, with no journals to export and paste.
- Map a common chart of accounts. Each entity's accounts land on the right line of the consolidation, with transactions between group companies excluded.
- Split by division. The P&L is shown by division and by entity, as well as for the whole group.
- Build the budget by owner. Each area has its own budget, edited in the platform or in Excel and compared every month against actuals.
- Track the board's metrics. Custom formulas, such as EBITDA by division or days sales outstanding, in a dashboard with their quarterly trend.
- Plan the team. The People module, built with the group's HR team, brings headcount cost and hiring scenarios into the plan.
What has changed?
The CFO took Fibady to the management committee. Three weeks later the CEOs and COOs of each company were logging in on their own to check their numbers, and the group CEO has a user of their own to see the consolidation and ask the AI agent.
Management's conversation has moved from "is this the right number?" to "what do we do about this number?". The next step is the 2027 budget, prepared and signed off by each owner in Fibady, and a close that reaches the board in days, not months.
Who is this case for?
The CFO or controller of a multi-entity group that still consolidates in spreadsheets, especially if the group has divisions with different business models. If that is you, see how Fibady works with multi-entity groups and with the CFO.
