Our role in the transaction
Oaklins Cavendish, based in the UK, was appointed to sell JBW in 2015 and managed a sale process involving a number of strategic buyers and financial investors. OUTSOURCING emerged as the preferred owner due to the strategic valuation they placed on the business and the benefits for JBW’s future growth from having the backing of a world-class data management, IT and BPO organization. Oaklins' team in Japan introduced OUTSOURCING and assisted throughout the sale process. This deal is another example of the seamless cooperation between Oaklins' teams, demonstrating the organization’s added value through its global execution capabilities, industry expertise and contacts.
