GROUPE LOCATION TRANSPORT acquired by MBO+

MBO Partners has acquired a majority stake in Groupe LT, a French company specializing in equipment and heavy machinery rentals, through a primary leveraged buyout (LBO). This transaction marks the exit of the company's two historical founders and minority shareholders, while the management team reinvests alongside MBO Partners to continue driving the group's growth. With a presence in three French regions, Groupe LT employs 350 staff members, operates a fleet of 500 vehicles, and generated +€40 million in revenue in 2017. Backed by MBO Partners, Amundi Private Equity Funds, and Arkéa Capital, the group plans to accelerate its diversification into site equipment activities, including modular living quarters and signaling solutions. This strategic shift aims to increase the company's exposure to more stable and recurring revenue streams, while capitalizing on the growing demand from major construction players for temporary, outsourced infrastructure. The new shareholders also aim to expand the group's geographic footprint and develop commercial synergies within its existing customer base.
