One of the largest private industrial groups in Europe, largely assembled through acquisition, decides to streamline its portfolio of businesses. This little company had an interesting and unique product, was a highly specialised niche manufacturer focussed on the Food & Beverage and Pharmaceutical industries.

Our engagement?

Sell the company quickly and cleanly, give it a strategy, a story, and get it off the corporate infrastructure and systems to make it easy for another company to acquire. Drive the sales process, and drive the company to perform throughout the process.

What happened?

We achieved a value on exit which was more than 3x the parent company’s expectation and internal valuation. We did this by reformulating the strategy and driving an aggressive and competitive sales process.
