The Situation

The client was a $15 million privately held Retailer and Distributor of Coffee based in Pennsylvania.

The Company’s growth had strained its liquidity, and the year-end audit revealed a shortfall in inventory. As a result, the senior lender required the Company to engage a crisis management firm.

How We Advised

Our experts conducted an operational assessment of the business and determined that selling it as an ongoing entity was the best course of action for all constituents. We helped maintain the Company’s operations while managing the sale process, which included identifying, structuring, negotiating, and closing the sale of the majority of the Company’s assets.
