P+P advises Elvaston on acquisition of eFulfilment Transaction Services GmbH
The Berlin-based private equity firm Elvaston Capital is investing in eFulfilment Transaction Services GmbH. The sellers will remain as shareholders with operational responsibilities. The execution of the transaction is to take place in September 2017.
eFulfilment Transaction Services GmbH was founded in 2004 in Ludwigsburg. The company is a technology provider specializing in multi-channel e-business and, with its eF|CommerceEngine, it offers a solution that unites all merchandising, distribution, storage and logistics operations in one centralized system. The modular engine adapts exactly to the existing systems and individual needs. The solution is effective in all possible scenarios: for brand manufacturers, retail merchandisers or logistics providers. Sales channels function throughout all distribution channels, B2C and B2B, cross-channel and multi-channel. The engine integrates all processes and thereby achieves an automation rate of over 90 percent.
The private equity firm Elvaston is led by entrepreneurs and specializes in mid-sized technology companies in German-speaking regions.
