“We are immensely grateful for the hard work and expertise we received from Oaklins in securing this fundraise. The team’s knowledge and communication skills were outstanding. It is the first time we have raised external funds,so we were heavily reliant on their introductions, all of which were a good fit for Ro&Zo. Their guidance through the process was exemplary. We are delighted to have chosen Pembroke as our new shareholders and look forward to a long relationship with them as we continue our growth strategy.”
