“Motion Equity Partners understood the keys to CDL's development from day one and established an honest and trustworthy relationship with our teams. With the acquisition of Omni-Pac in Germany, a build-up completed with their full support, we have transformed a French SME into a European leader, leveraging substantial industrial and commercial synergies. In this decisive step as well as for everyday business, the professionalism of Motion Equity Partners' team made them the ideal partner who supported us in financial engineering, in negotiation with sellers (in this case a complex carve-out), as well as in supporting us in defining our long term vision, developing our teams and executing our strategy. Our relationship, rich from combined experience, has energized our teams and the entire business.”

“At the beginning of its second LBO, Diana’s main challenge was to kept transforming its growth-oriented business model to maintain its entrepreneurial dynamic. Key success factors have been innovation, as the reference company regarding the development of new solutions or technologies for natural ingredients dedicated to the Food and Pet Food markets, partnerships with our markets’ leaders to meet their future needs, internationalizing of teams and further process. Motion’s team fully understood how important this evolution was and played a key role in implementing these new roadmaps as a very supportive, prompt and agile partner, especially when it came to realizing acquisitions and opening new subsidiaries in Asia and South America. Besides, Motion’s support in the implementation of an ambitious and aggressive Sustainable Development policy turned Diana into a pioneer, if not the leading company, in terms of societal responsibility, relying on strong human values of commitment, respect and loyalty”

Motion's hands on, pragmatic approach and open communication allowed us to develop the trust and mutual respect that underpin any successful partnership.”
