CRIDO consulted on the acquisition of Domczar (a prefabricated bathroom modules manufacturer) by the TEP Capital fund.

CRIDO conducted financial due diligence on Domczar, and the project involved our M&A team experts Jacek Ostrowski, Jarosław Nowicki, Marta Pepłońska, and Kamil Grzyb.

“We are proud that our expertise permitted a smooth transaction that gives another Polish organisation an opportunity to expand to new markets and scale up its operations. We would like to thank our partners from the fund for their trust and our team for their commitment to the project,” says Jacek Ostrowski, Financial M&A Team partner at CRIDO.

“It was a very interesting due diligence project concerning a manufacturer of pre-fabricated bathroom modules. As it turns out, entire bathrooms with sanitary whiteware, installations, and fully tiled walls can be packed on a truck and shipped overseas, where they are then installed during the construction process. Thanks to Domczar, investors from all over Europe receive turnkey bathrooms on time, in the highest standard of execution and in many variations. One might venture to say that it is a kind of magic that is only possible with Domczar,” notes Jarosław Nowicki, senior manager at CRIDO’s Financial M&A Team. “This project was among the most interesting cases the CRIDO team has had the opportunity to undertake recently,” he adds.

Based in Kolno, Domczar is a manufacturer of prefabricated bathroom modules used in construction. The company exports over 90 percent of its production, primarily to Western Europe, where offering turnkey bathrooms is standard in many developments.

TEP Capital is a fund that invests in organisations from various industries by reinvesting the profits of Thomas Gruppe, a German prefabricate concrete giant. For TEP Capital, Domczar is the third direct investment in Poland.
