Food Business Consultancy
Although at Corporate Mergers, our business is primarily centred on Mergers and Acquisitions, we are also called upon to advise businesses on a variety of matters due to our experience in a wide range of food businesses.
Corporate Mergers' food business consultancy services can typically include the following disciplines:
Presale planning
Very often it can be beneficial to work with a client prior to the sale process commencing. Getting the Business in top shape prior to a sale can ease the Due Diligence process; can provide the time to arrange its tax affairs and generally ensure that the Business is in the best possible shape.
Competitive benchmarking and adopting best practices
As a result of our extensive connections with many food businesses, we are able to assist a client compare their business with others within their sector. We share best practice methods and work to identify areas of profit improvement.
Sales and marketing consultancy and strategy
Occasionally, we are asked to assist a client to undertake Sales and Marketing consultancy projects, given our extensive experience in two main sub-sectors of the food industry – Meat Processing and Ingredients.
Fundraising projects and assistance with re-banking and asset finance, etc.
We are happy to work with clients who are looking for new relationship managers or for sources of commercial finance and funding. We possess an extensive network of contacts within the Banking community. We do not however, undertake detailed financial modelling, cash flow projections etc. preferring to leave this to the clients’ accountants or other fundraising specialists we work with.
I was extremely impressed with how you handled the project, from the identification of potential suitors through to completion. Without your knowledge and understanding of our industry it would not have been possible to achieve that end result in the time scale we managed. All of the staff are delighted we chose Frutarom, all of their jobs are secure and the shareholders have realised the full market value of their shares.
