Transaction:

East Flanders-based LivWise, whose home and kitchen accessories are for sale in Inno, Casa, Bijenkorf and Oh Green!, attracts two investors. After almost a quarter of a century, Caroline De Schipper, the founder of LivWise, is relinquishing control of her company. She decided to sell the majority of the shares of her own company to the Flemish investment companies Tilleghem and Dynamica, who specialise in the development of SMEs, thus giving LivWise new growth opportunities.

VDP assisted the owner of LiveWise.
