CFI advised De Roller on the sale to Group of Butchers, a portfolio company of Nordian
Amsterdam – CFI acted as the exclusive corporate finance advisor to the family shareholders of De Roller on its sale to Group of Butchers, a portfolio company of Nordian Capital Partners (‘Nordian’).
De Roller is a family owned company specialized in the production of smoked meats, primarily traditionally smoked sausages. The company’s history goes back over a century and the company is currently run by the third generation of the founding family.
GOB, founded in 1997, is a Dutch food group with annual revenue of nearly €100 million that specializes in the development and sale of fresh cold cuts, grilled meat products and fresh Filet Americain. The company operates locations in the Netherlands and Belgium. Its products are supplied primarily to supermarkets and in the out-of-home market in the Benelux. GOB, together with Nordian, devised a buy-and-build strategy which has resulted in the acquisitions of four market parties in the recent years.
Nordian is a Dutch mid-market private equity. Nordian focusses on majority stake investments in Dutch mid-market companies, generating over € 3 million EBITDA per annum. Portfolio companies include Chrysal (post-harvest cut-flower nutrition and preservatives), Kipp & Zonen (solar and atmospheric measuring instruments), Redwave (professionals for energy sector), Vandervalk+Degroot (drain and sewer cleaning), Unicorn Grain Specialities (treated grains), Coppens (fish feeds), Luzac (private education), Bangkok Ranch (Peking ducks), and Koop (water management).
CFI initiated discussions and negotiations with a select number of potential strategic and financial buyers in a process that ultimately resulted in a successful transaction with Group of Butchers, a portfolio Company of Nordian, which closed 30 May 2016.
