without slowing your business down.

Whether you are selling your company or your group must find a buyer under France's Florange law, we apply the same M&A rigor: we structure the process, run the outreach and lead negotiations to secure a solid deal that preserves value, operations and jobs.

What’s going wrong

Finding the right buyer has never been harder

Before
  • Less competition
  • Financing was more accessible
  • Lighter regulation and compliance
  • Buyers were easier to find
  • Markets were more predictable
Today
  • Due diligence: 60% longer than ten years ago
  • ESG compliance adds an extra layer of scrutiny
  • More stakeholders to align
  • Fewer solid buyers
  • Social, tax and legal complexity keeps growing
The traditional approach

The response of consulting firms to these challenges: outdated strategies

  • Search within a single industry
  • Accept solely profitable companies
  • Contact just a few enterprises from their network
  • Abandon mandates at the first setback
Strataure Approach

This approach has reached its limits.
It exhausts both sellers and buyers. Instead, what is needed is:

  • Hire a specialist firm to implement a competitive and confidential process
  • Connect with 150 to 300 potential buyers
  • Test several industries per month
  • Contact decision-makers directly
  • Follow a proven methodology
  • Vary the channels: letters, email, phone calls and LinkedIn

Our expertise

Two contexts,
one rigorous method.

A voluntary sale or a Florange-law obligation: we identify the most relevant buyers and run the strategy that turns an opportunity into a deal.

Structuring every deal around your objectives
01. STRATEGIC ADVISORY

Structuring every deal around your objectives

Strataure supports business owners on two types of transactions:

  • the sale of their company
  • the search for strategic partners

From initial diagnosis to closing, we combine strategic insight, robust valuation and absolute confidentiality.

Our approach relies on a precise reading of each situation, targeted outreach to relevant acquirers and active management of negotiations. The goal: align your wealth objectives with business continuity, employment and local ecosystems.

A rigorous approach to secure your legal obligations and sustain the industrial site.
02. FLORANGE LAW

A rigorous approach to secure your legal obligations and sustain the industrial site.

Since 2019, Strataure has supported major groups in meeting their legal obligation to find a buyer.

Far from a mere administrative compliance exercise, we apply our M&A methods to turn this requirement into a genuine sale process: capability assessment, direct and confidential outreach to targeted industrial players, and negotiation of offers.

Working closely with your group’s legal counsel, our goal is to secure the transaction and find solid partners able to safeguard jobs and the local area, as illustrated by the successful takeover of the historic Poulain site in Blois (41).
