Sell-side advice: Eliona acquired by Winterhalter

Level Next assisted in the sale of the Belgian family business Eliona to the German multinational company Winterhalter. Eliona is the exclusive distributor of high-end dishwashers and turbo ovens for the Belgian restaurant industry. They distribute the brands Winterhalter, Classeq and Menumaster.

Joseph Baert, Managing Director at Level Next: “The acquisition is remarkable because Eliona’s main customers, namely the restaurant owners, have been severely affected by the recent COVID-19 pandemic. Despite the difficult market conditions, the continuous growth in the number of customers and the strong technical team of Eliona attracted several interested parties.”
