M&A Developments | Floriculture sector | H2 2019
Oaklins identified 32 M&A transactions in the floriculture sector during the second half year of 2019. Deal activity was strong over the entire value chain. Compared to the first half year of 2019, transactions where private equity (backed) firms were involved, increased from three to seven transactions. Based on the characteristics and trends of the sector, we expect the consolidation to continue. We've grouped the transactions into six segments: Breeding; Growing; Wholesale; Retail; Equipment & Engineering and Consumables.
