Profile (strategy) of this buyer for adhesives manufacturers in Europe

The buyer is a medium-sized company in the chemical sector that produces adhesives and derivatives of products that are used for its adhesive characteristics. The company has extensive experience in the manufacture of adhesives, backed by a history of more than 120 years. The company manufactures also other and related specialty chemicals.

• paper industry

• cement industry
• packaging industry
• chemical industry
• food industry
• textile
• feed industry etc.

The company is very successful in its niche, which makes it an international benchmark in the sector. The buyer is a family holding company which has also other businesses outside the field of the chemical industry and is in good financial health.

The company has recently invested in a new 12,000m2 production plant, and now its management started looking to invest modestly in central Europe to be more competitive. Investment in new plant or acquisition of an existing plant is an option. 

Since its inception, the company has a strong track record of growth and profitability. The strategic plan of the management is to support this growth by geographical expansion by M&A, that is why the managers reached out to CFIE for help with identifying possible targets.

Activities and products of suitable target

The buyer company is already present in central and eastern Europe, Turkey and North Africa but the management decided to strengthen its presence with a new production centre. The buyer wants to strengthen its adhesives production capabilities.

Therefore, they started scanning the market for a small chemical company that can be produced or reconverted and that is the starting point of a new centre. The buyer company is on a growth trajectory and this project of acquisition of a small company will most likely be a bridge to greater growth of both the buyer and the target in the medium term.

The company is looking at any country in Europe. Also, Turkey is interesting to the buyer, but due to possible political instability, European countries are a priority. Preferred countries are for example

• Hungary
• Bulgaria
• Romania
• Slovenia etc.

The plan of the buyer involves buying a small company that can be implemented more easily in the beginning and the objective would be to reconvert it to manufacture the buyer's products. Despite that, in the case that its current activity is interesting, the buyer is ready to enhance it to the maximum.
