The Story

01

The Situation

A VC-backed consumer goods brand needed a turnaround, and a plan its investors could back: the route to profitability, breakeven and the funding needed to get there.
02

The Intervention

Led a full VC investment round, and moved manufacturing from the UK to Germany.
03

The Outcome

Manufacturing costs improved by 30%, giving the turnaround plan a leaner cost base to build from.
04

What Happened Next

When further funding could not be secured, the administration was managed with full professionalism, and the brand's assets were sold to a new owner.
