Investment Thesis

Wilvo is set to benefit from its leading position in the attractive, growing and resilient market of outsourced metal components and systems. It works with winning customers in fast growing end-markets driven by secular megatrends, including semiconductor, industrial automation, and medtech. Having completed five acquisitions in the last years, Wilvo is a proven Dutch buy-and-build platform in a fragmented market with strong consolidation rationale. International expansion (organically or via M&A) would be a logical next step to further diversify revenues over geographies, end-markets, and customers.

“Over the last couple of years, Wilvo realized rapid growth following strong mutual commitment to and from our customers, for whom we solve complex engineering challenges and to whom we are a reliable production partner. To continue serving existing and new clients at our ever-increasing standards, we will continue to invest in best-in-class engineering and production capabilities. We are confident that, with the support of Rivean, the Wilvo journey will remain very exciting with the best still to come.“
