A Danish green footprint brought into a European context

Deal Flash

The founders and shareholders of OKNygaard A/S have sold the company to idverde. With this transaction, Denmark’s largest privately owned grounds maintenance and landscaping company will join forces with its largest European peer.

The landscaping market is non-cyclical and has proven stability in challenging times. The market is driven by a variety of factors, such as population growth, urbanization, increased focus on an active lifestyle among the population and, ultimately, climate change.

Our culture and hands-on operational approach was a good match with Oaklins, as they are pragmatic and down to earth. We appreciated their attention to detail and the way the process was managed, which prepared us well every step of the way. HOLGER HANSEN, CFO AND OWNER, OKNYGAARD A/S, DENMARK
