Losing millions a year. Fixed in five months.

The situation

A buyer was losing millions every year with its business in Japan. Its reputation with customers was falling to a point where a recovery looked difficult.

What we did

• Proposed an acquisition as the way out, instead of another round of cost cutting.
• Carried out the acquisition for the client.
• Fixed operations on the ground, together with the people of both companies.

The result

Operations fixed within five months. The target stayed profitable during the whole process, and many employees kept their jobs. Buyer and customers both saw the deal as a success.
