The Connect Corporate Finance team are a leading Freight & Logistics M&A boutique serving the SME market. Offering services to shareholders globally, we facilitate corporate development strategies through deal origination and lead advisory.
The Freight Forwarding, Logistics and Transportation industries continue to evolve. Global supply chains are being transformed by investments in technology that enable more efficient movements of goods through increasingly complex networks and provide improved end-to-end visibility and more cost-effective supply chain process for customers. Consolidation in the pursuit of scale and capability in this changing landscape means increased M&A activity across all sub sectors of Freight.
At Connect Corporate Finance, we are well positioned to assist our clients through this change, with sector experience and a robust network of contacts, across all modes of transportation, we can continue to introduce our clients to the strongest acquisitive buyers and best performing sell-side targets in the industry.
Recruitment & Staffing
Over many years, the partners at Connect Corporate Finance have garnered significant knowledge of the Human capital industry in the UK, Central Europe, America and Australia. We offer company owners a platform to pursue cross border transactions, whether it be a company disposal or a targeted acquisition.
The sector consistently experiences high transaction volumes, as a continually expanding industry with low barriers to entry. We envisage no suppression in appetite for M&A deals in 2022, with many trade buyers continuing to seek profitable, strong performing agencies.
The rationale for acquisitions remains, with technology increasing company valuations and the perception of attractiveness, we have seen recruitment platforms and software agencies, become the most prominent acquisition topic ahead of generalist agency company sales, in 2021.
