Its success is due to 3 essential factors: a unique catalogue in Europe, a massive stock allowing it to deliver everywhere and very quickly, and exceptional customer service.

We had many conversations with private equity funds but the one that stood out was with the Ardian Growth team because they really understood our business and, like us, they had a truly long-term vision of how Kapten & Son could develop.
