Dansk Ejerkapital, a private equity firm, completed the acquisition of a minority stake in EICO, a distributor of cooking hoods, kitchen appliances and other products for kitchen and bath. Financial terms were not disclosed. "We have reached our goal after a very professional, streamlined and safe process. Safe is a small word with a great meaning. I have allowed myself to feel safe with things I was not all familiar with and I have felt supported in this collaboration. Clearwater has been good at guiding and explaining, without me having to dive into the smallest comma so we could continue operating our business. I had an assumption that it would be somewhat stiffer and more formal but it has been straightforward with good chemistry all round. We have found a match in Dansk Ejerkapital; it matches our DNA – also on a human level. This allows us to sit behind the wheel but also feel challenged constructively at the same time. That motivates me to continue on our journey together," Michael Jacobsen, EICO CEO.
