Every year, the M&A platforms Brookz and Dealsuite present the M&A Awards. M&A firms, investment companies, and advisors compete for the honor of winning one of the awards. We were proud to receive the award for “Best M&A Firm in the Medium Category” 🏆 in 2023. And this year, we’ve been nominated again!
We would greatly appreciate your support and vote. You can cast your vote now.
The nomination follows a year of nearly 25 deals. In which, again this year, we were allowed to advise clients on both the selling side and the buying side. We mention 3 examples with a special character.
- Van den IJssel Workwear: Optigroup’s acquisition of Van den IJssel Workwear has generated synergy benefits for both parties from day one. Van den IJssel’s ESG policy has served as a guiding principle for the entire organization. Conversely, Van den IJssel benefits from its new position as part of a larger group. Both the seller and the buyer immediately had a positive feeling about the deal, which led to a successful transaction and a promising outlook for both parties.
- MJL Investments: The company behind the T-shirt and underwear brands Slater and Garage sold its business operations to EK Fashion. This transaction identified the ideal buyer to further expand the carefully built brands both nationally and internationally, leveraging specific expertise and an extensive network.
- J. Hoondert & Sons Construction and Rental Company: A management buyout, in which the family business was transferred to the managing director. A process involving complexities related to the combination of valuation and financing structure, which was successfully resolved thanks to the solution-oriented approach of the parties involved.
