What Our Clients Say
“We sincerely thank Translink CF for the preparation of this operation and their constant support throughout. We have learned a great deal about the technicalities and structuring of this type of deal with their guidance, and the efficiency and quality of their advice have enabled us to build an intelligent, balanced, and respectful transaction for all parties involved.”
“With its customer-centric values, an exceptionally talented team and a market-leading retail offering, the MFI Group is a great addition to the Fielmann Group. As Óptica & Audiología Universitaria and the MFI Group join forces, hearing and vision services in Spain will become better and more affordable for everyone. We trust that together we will continue to change the market to the benefit of customers and achieve market-leadership in the medium-term.”
“With the Fielmann Group, we gain access to an international supply chain and a superior omnichannel platform. We also join a family business that shares our customer-centric values as well as our people-first approach. We look forward to contributing our expertise in retail, lens manufacturing and protective equipment to better serve customers across Spain.”
“Translink Germany has again been key to a successful acquisition for CECOP. They always have the interests and dynamics of both parties in mind, and this has proven to be the right approach. Many thanks to Andreas, Daniel, and the whole team at Translink Germany.”
“This transaction provides a great platform for expansion across the Baltic region. IV is an excellent business and we look forward to welcoming IV to Miss Group and continue our mutual growth journey. I am impressed with the continuous deal support provided by the financial advisors. Once again have Anecta and the Translink network proved its value proposition to us and I highly recommend them for national and cross-border deal advisory.”
“We are happy to become part of a group that shares our passion for excellent customer care and continuous service improvement. We are confident that this combination will further enhance the experience and offering to our current and future customers.”
“This transaction will allow us to seize significant growth opportunities in the North American market and, at the same time, create synergies in every operational area. I was impressed by the ability of Translink to originate this opportunity for us so close to the profile we were seeking in such a competitive market. This was our first acquisition outside of Italy. Nevertheless, Translink was able to make this complex and new experience, both in terms of norms and culture, seem familiar and manageable for us. I highly recommend Translink for companies wishing to expand abroad and especially for those interested in the United States.”
“Within our strategy for global growth, America is one of our central target markets. We are already represented there through an acquisition on the East Coast and with our own branch office. With the acquisition of Lockwood, we are entering the heart of the oil and gas industry suppliers at the Houston location. We are convinced that Lockwood will give us excellent access to the American market and that we will be able to support the local team with our expertise.”
“Having established AddSearch as a market-leading hosted website search product, we look forward to working closely with saas.group to further scale the company.

“I am very grateful to the Holon-Translink team for handling this complex process smoothly and safely. Holon-Translink’s extensive access to foreign investors proved to be the key to success, putting our family business in the best possible hands to guarantee future growth and security. At the same time, thanks to Holon’s creativity in finding solutions and ability to overcome problems, we were able to negotiate very favourable transaction terms. Our success would not have been possible without full mutual trust.”
“We are particularly pleased with the acquisition of Spedimex. We have a very similar culture and values, in particular the cult of customer proximity and innovation. This acquisition leads us to become one of the leaders on the Polish market which is one of the most dynamic in Europe and brings us a portfolio of new leading customers that we will develop in other countries of the Group.”
“Astro Sweden and PN Jakt have strong historical growth with high profitability, and the current year is moving in the same direction. Astro Sweden was awarded a Gasellföretag (one of the quickest growing companies in Sweden) by newspaper, Dagens Industri for four years in a row.

Together with SwissCommerce, we will have a large source of competencies, knowledge and experiences in all areas that are required for a company to reach for even higher levels.”
“Add-on acquisitions of companies with niched business areas are an important part of SwissCommerce’s strategy to create long-term value growth.

Through the acquisition of Astro Sweden, we get another well-managed company with market-leading positioning in business areas that complement our existing assortment very well.”

Accounting firms are under increasing pressure to automate complex and time-consuming processes, both to attract new talent and keep up with rising demands from their own clients. We have the tools that can help them.”
