Van Dam Bodegraven is a manufacturer of a wide range of household cleaning products. The company was acquired in 2001 through a management buy-in. The company’s turnover has grown substantially over the past 5 years. The shareholder did not have a suitable successor in place and wanted to retire from the business.
Independent Capital Partners advised the owner in the sale of the company and found a suitable buy-in manager.
Van Dam Bodegraven is the biggest private label manufacturer of household cleaning products, but also manufactures a number of brands such as VIM and Cilit Bang.
Van Dam Bodegraven is well positioned to benefit from the fragmentation in the market. With the new buy-in manager further growth has been enabled.
