Financing is provided by senior debt arranged by Cr&eacute;dit Agricole Mutuel Charente P&eacute;rigord.<\/p>\n<p>This MBO should also bring a new generation of managers into the capital and accelerate the Group&#039;s CSR transformation, already under way for several years, notably by introducing a mechanism for sharing the creation of value for the benefit of all employees. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Founded in 1947 by the Vigier family, the Vigier group specialises in metal construction for commercial buildings and industrial civil engineering structures. A regional player in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region, the P&eacute;rigord-based group will have generated sales of &euro;57 million by 2022 and employs 230 people at its head office near P&eacute;rigueux and sites in the Dordogne, Gironde and Charente-Maritime.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;We were attracted to the development plan put forward by the two directors and their managers by its resolutely committed and shared ambition. The support for the handover to management and the value-sharing system that will be put in place as part of this deal, combined with existing CSR initiatives and the values espoused by the group&#039;s management, are totally in line with the investment thesis of the Nov Relance Impact Fund. We are extremely enthusiastic about the idea of supporting the management and employees of the Vigier Group in this new phase&quot;, comments Alexandre Joubert, Investment Director at Turenne Groupe.<\/p>\n<p><u><strong>Participants:<\/strong><\/u><\/p>\n<p><strong>Vigier Groupe: <\/strong>S&eacute;bastien FROUIN (Chairman), Gr&eacute;gory SAERENS (Chairman), Philippe DUCLUSEAU (Chief Financial Officer)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Turenne Groupe:<\/strong> Alexandre JOUBERT, Mathilde SERRES, Paul WESTEEL<\/p>\n<p><strong>Debt: <\/strong>Cr&eacute;dit Agricole Mutuel Charente P&eacute;rigord (Matthieu BARRAULT, Olivier COURTOIS)<\/p>\n<p><u><strong>Advisors :<\/strong><\/u><\/p>\n<p><strong>M&amp;A advisor Vigier Groupe: <\/strong>Soci&eacute;t&eacute; G&eacute;n&eacute;rale (Caroline DUCLOS, Pierre LE GOFF)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Attorneys Turenne Group:<\/strong> Cornet Vincent S&eacute;gurel<\/p>\n<p><strong>Corporate, coordination and legal due diligence:<\/strong> St&eacute;phanie GERARD, Claire JAGUENEAU<br \/>\n<strong>Social due diligence: <\/strong>Anne PITAULT, Antoine LOSSE<br \/>\n<strong>Tax due diligence: <\/strong>Anne-Claire BARRAULT<br \/>\n<strong>Attorneys Managers: <\/strong>Fidal (Laurent BINEAUD)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Financial due diligence:<\/strong> Deloitte (Bertrand CHABOUSSOU, Rodolph LE ROHO, Arthur METGE)<\/p>\n<p><strong>ESG due diligence:<\/strong> ACA Nexia (Sandrine GIMAT, Elona PLICHON)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Debt attorney:<\/strong> August Debouzy (Laure BONIN, Driss TLEM&Ccedil;ANI)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Interest rate hedging:<\/strong> KERIUS (S&eacute;bastien ROUZAIRE, Solal HUARD, Marion DONDIN)<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/article><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Vigier Group is organising its transfer with the support of Turenne Groupe, advised by a multidisciplinary team from the law firm Cornet Vincent S&eacute;gurel.
