About the deal

Capitalmind Investec has advised Alpha Private Equity and EUROPART on a €130m refinancing.

EUROPART is the leading European distributor of spare parts and wearables for the independent commercial vehicle aftermarket (trucks, busses and trailers).

With this transaction, Capitalmind Investec has advised Alpha Private Equity and EUROPART four times since Alpha acquired EUROPART from Triton in 2017. The ongoing relationship underlines Capitalmind Investec‘s deep understanding of EUROPART ‘s business and markets. Based on this we were able to achieve a successful outcome of the recapitalisation in still challenging financing markets.

The refinancing of our company was a complete success for our company and our shareholders due to our long-standing partnership with Capitalmind Investec. Thanks to Capitalmind Investec’s extraordinary expertise, professionalism and strong commitment, the collaboration was very efficient, allowing us to focus on our day-to-day business.
