The company operates through two main channels: retail with in-store sales and B2B through direct sales to engineering and construction firms.

Our role in the transaction

Oaklins’ team in Chile acted as the exclusive financial advisor to FIP Hammer in the sale of a 100% stake in Construmart S.A. to Inversiones RTB S.p.A. FIP Hammer had originally acquired Construmart S.A. in 2018 through a transaction also led and structured by the Chilean team. During that process, the team organized a group of local investors who acquired the company with a seven-year investment horizon. This successful investment concluded with the recent transaction, achieving a net internal rate of return (IRR) of 19.3% in local currency.
