Addressing complex commercial and operational issues to support successful completion.
Aktrion is an international provider of outsourced manufacturing and business support services, operating critical parts of clients’ operations on a contract basis. At the time of the transaction, the business reported turnover in excess of £90 million and had established a strong presence across sectors including printing, automotive, food and transport. Given Aktrion’s breadth of services and multi-sector footprint, a key focus of the process was identifying a buyer with a strong strategic fit across its operations.
Atalian Servest was attracted by Aktrion’s higher value-added and specialist service offering, as well as the opportunity to enhance its European presence and global capabilities.
Throughout the transaction, a number of commercial and operational matters arising from due diligence required detailed negotiation. Andy Moore played a central role in addressing these points on behalf of the sellers and supporting the transaction through to completion.
There is an excellent strategic fit between Aktrion and Servest. The acquisition is part of Servest’s growth and diversification strategy, strengthening its presence in Europe and in the key sectors in which Aktrion operates.
