Livingstone Partners ha sido asesor exclusivo de finanzas corporativas para <\/strong>Inspecs Group plc<\/strong><\/a> (\u201cInspecs\u201d) en la compra del fabricante l\u00edder de gafas en Alemania, <\/strong>Eschenbach Holding GmbH <\/strong><\/a>(\u201cEschenbach\u201d), una compa\u00f1\u00eda del portfolio de <\/strong>Equistone Partners Europe<\/strong><\/a> (\u201cEquistone\u201d), as\u00ed como en la financiaci\u00f3n de capital y deuda de la transacci\u00f3n.<\/strong><\/p>

Eschenbach fu\u00e9 fundada en 1913 y es un fabricante l\u00edder de gafas. La compa\u00f1\u00eda ofrece tanto monturas para gafas de correcci\u00f3n como gafas de sol y tiene representaci\u00f3n a lo largo de Europa y EEUU. Eschenbach combina un dise\u00f1o -varias veces galardonado- con una gran calidad tanto en gafas de marca  como ayudas para la visi\u00f3n o prism\u00e1ticos. Este compromiso con la calidad y el dise\u00f1o se refleja en los \u201cRed Dot Awards\u201d y \u201cGerman Design Awards\u201d que Eschenbach ha recibido por sus colecciones de gafas en los \u00faltimos tres a\u00f1os. Las marcas de Eschenbach incluyen Marco Polo, Humphrey\u2019s, Mini Eyewear, Titanflex, Freigeist, Tura y Ted Baker. Las ventas del grupo Eschenbach en 2019 alcanzaron los 143 millones de euros.<\/p>

Inspecs fu\u00e9 fundada en el Reino Unido en 1988 por Robin Totterman y es una multinacional de dise\u00f1o, fabricaci\u00f3n y distribuci\u00f3n de monturas de gafas y lentes. El grupo produce una amplia gama de monturas \u00f3pticas, de seguridad y gafas de sol bajo distintas marcas y bajo la modalidad de OEM. Inspecs es por tanto uno de los pocos proveedores capaces de ofrecer una soluci\u00f3n completa a sus clientes, que incluyen cadenas internacionales de \u00f3pticas y cadenas de retail, as\u00ed como distribuidores y \u00f3pticas independientes. La red de distribuci\u00f3n de la compa\u00f1\u00eda abarca 80 pa\u00edses, incluye unos 30.000 establecimientos comerciales, y tiene filiales en Reino Unido, Portugal, Escandinavia, los EEUU y China e instalaciones de producci\u00f3n en Vietnam, China, el Reino Unido e Italia.<\/p>

Mediante la fusi\u00f3n con Eschenbach, Inspecs contin\u00faa expandiendo fuertemente su posici\u00f3n en el mercado internacional.<\/p>

\u201cUnir a estos dos negocios l\u00edderes crear\u00e1 la 6\u00aa compa\u00f1\u00eda m\u00e1s grande de gafas del mundo y permitir\u00e1 al grupo expandido penetrar en mayor medida mercados globales estrat\u00e9gicos mientras se diversifica nuestra clientela combinada y portfolio de productos\u201d<\/em>, <\/strong>dice Chris Kay, CFO de Inspecs Plc.<\/strong> \u201cEl equipo de Livingstone fu\u00e9 crucial en permitir una transacci\u00f3n sin complicaciones, y su asesoramiento, consejo y experiencia fueron cruciales para permitir que la transacci\u00f3n y negociaciones fluyeran adecuadamente\u201d. <\/em><\/p>

Michael Westhoven<\/strong><\/a>, Socio de Livingstone D\u00fcsseldorf<\/strong>, coment\u00f3: \u201cTras su IPO en febrero de este a\u00f1o, estamos encantados de tener la ocasi\u00f3n de seguir apoyando a Inspecs en este paso decisivo para convertirse en uno de los grupos l\u00edderes en el negocio internacional de gafas y esperamos poder seguir ayudando en su desarrollo. Desde nuestro punto de vista, Inspecs y Eschenbach representan una combinaci\u00f3n perfecta de dos compa\u00f1\u00edas idealmente complementarias\u201d.  <\/em><\/p>

Inspecs es la tercera transacci\u00f3n exitosa completada en el sector de gafas despu\u00e9s de ic! Berlin<\/a> y Mykita.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"featured_media":2775,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"client-type":[],"region":[],"sector":[],"service":[],"transaction-type":[],"class_list":["post-15277","transaction","type-transaction","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":{"team_members":[1791],"date":"20201123","client_type":46,"type":[1022],"region":[396],"services":[463,464],"sectors":[842,846],"related_transactions":"","related_testimonials":[49515],"contacts":""},"yoast_head":"\nLivingstone
