Our role in the transaction

Oaklins’ team in France acted as advisor to ADDEV Materials in this transaction. As their partner in the implementation of its external growth strategy in France and internationally, Oaklins led the search for acquisition opportunities aimed at strengthening the group’s position after having successfully accompanied it in the acquisition of the British group Graytone in 2019. The French team identified Supavia as a recognized specialist in military aeronautics and led the merger process.
