CVC Capital-backed Stock Spirits, a beverage company, agreed to acquire Dugas, a company that distributes alcoholic beverages, from Equistone Partners, a private equity firm. Financial terms were not disclosed. “The two planned transactions with Dugas and Clan Campbell will enable Stock Spirits to penetrate the French and Western European markets. We want Dugas to become the distributor of Scotch Whiskey Clan Campbell on the French market, which will allow Dugas to continue its expansion with mass distribution, selective distribution and retail. At the same time, Dugas will also distribute the iconic brands of Stock Spirits so that we can offer French consumers great brands from Central Europe,” Jean-Christophe Coutures, Stock Spirits CEO.
