M&A Advisory
We are the trusted deal advisor for the global agriculture and food industries.
Verdant advises buyers and sellers through the complex and highly technical aspect of divesting, acquiring, or merging a business. We represent privately-held business, public multinationals, and private equity firms. Our diverse experience, established relationships, and deep knowledge of the food and agribusiness sector have led to hundreds of successfully completed transactions on behalf of our clients.
SELL SIDE SERVICES
Verdant supports food and agriculture business owners in the sale of their companies to both strategic and financial buyers. We emphasize the end result: a transaction that is most equitable to our clients. Our presence simplifies the process and enables our clients to concentrate on managing their businesses. We advise on strategy, provide insights and common sense, at all times maintaining professional standards and confidentiality. Our long-standing personal relationships with food and agribusiness industry senior management are an integral element of our success.
BUY SIDE SERVICES
Verdant has represented a broad array of clients by identifying and executing acquisitions globally. Our close relationships with industry contacts coupled with our knowledge of the competitive landscape of the food and agriculture industry enables us to assess and initiate deal opportunities for our clients, giving buyers the ability to confidentially approach and negotiate favorable terms with strategic targets.
LICENSING SERVICES
Verdant advises both buyers and sellers in the structuring of exclusive and non-exclusive licensing arrangements. Our team is well versed in proprietary technologies for the food and agriculture industry and understands the ideal framework of licensing agreements that maximize value for our clients.
JOINT VENTURES & STRATEGIC ALLIANCES
Sometimes collaboration does not involve the exchange of money. In this case, Verdant will assist its clients by identifying a business relationship that achieves their objectives without the need for cash to change hands. No two transactions are alike, and therefore we take a unique approach to each assignment. Our ability to leverage industry relationships is how we create value for our clients.
