JD Merit Advises International Greenhouse Contractors Inc. on Its Sale to BFG Supply Co., a Platform
Rezul News/10606791
JD Merit & Company, a leading middle market investment bank and 2021 Boutique Investment Banking Firm of the Year, is honored to have served as exclusive adviser to International Greenhouse Contractors Inc., in its sale to BFG Supply Co.
SEATTLE - Rezul -- IGC was founded in 1993 by David Geore Sr. in Seattle as a greenhouse construction services provider and quickly evolved into a leading value-added distributor and one of the first companies in the space to leverage the internet for sales and distribution. Upon taking over the business, George Sr.'s sons, David and Ben, accelerated growth by leveraging the company's established e-commerce footprint. In doing so, they built Greenhouse Megastore into the leading value-added provider of hobby and commercial greenhouses and related products to consumer, institutional, and commercial markets.
Seeking a partner to help facilitate the next phase of the company's growth while maintaining the family legacy, the George family engaged JD Merit to provide strategic alternatives and transaction advisory services. JD Merit managed a robust process that garnered interest from both strategic and financial buyers. After evaluating multiple offers, IGC selected BFG for the strong cultural fit, growth focus and unique adjacent expertise in its target verticals. This provided both the buyer and seller with unique synergistic growth opportunities going forward.
