Fleet management software provider enters next growth phase following majority investment
Deal Flash
Sofindev has reached an agreement with the shareholders of Euphoria Mobility, including private equity firm Plain Vanilla Investments, to acquire a majority stake in the company. This strategic partnership will enable Euphoria to accelerate its European expansion, reinforce its presence in the Benelux region and further enhance its product offering.
Founded in 1993, Euphoria provides private transportation companies with a vendor-independent, fully integrated software platform for trip planning, booking, dispatch, ride registration and mobile data communication. Its technology supports hundreds of public and private fleet operators across the Benelux, Norway, Finland, Sweden and the UAE, forming the backbone of their daily operations. The platform seamlessly integrates with ERP, billing and route-planning systems, delivering real-time operational data that helps clients boost efficiency, comply with regulatory requirements and enhance the passenger experience.
With this new partnership, Euphoria is set to accelerate its international growth and the rollout of its innovative product portfolio. Backed by Sofindev, the management team aims to expand the customer base and reseller network in the Nordic region, scale up the commercial deployment of its AI-driven route-planning software and capitalize on the ongoing device migration wave in the Netherlands.
Oaklins exceeded every expectation during the successful divestment of Euphoria. The Oaklins team was hands-on, highly dedicated, thinking ahead and focused on finding solutions. In addition, they combined strategic insight with disciplined execution, running a smooth, well-structured and competitive process while keeping all parties aligned throughout. This allowed us, as shareholders, to remain focused on supporting the management team and on the strategic rationale of the transaction. It was a pleasure to work with the Oaklins team.ARTHUR TJON, PARTNER, PLAIN VANILLA INVESTMENTS, NETHERLANDS
