As a trusted partner to brand aggregators, Linton Group is committed to helping companies navigate the complexities of merger and acquisition (M&A) activities. Our Due Diligence service is designed to provide companies with a comprehensive understanding of an existing brand’s supply chain, and to help them identify opportunities to optimize and improve it after the acquisition.
The supply chain is a critical component of any business, and optimizing it can have a significant impact on a company’s bottom line. That’s why we perform thorough due diligence on an existing brand’s supply chain, exploring its strengths and weaknesses, and identifying areas where improvements can be made.
Our team of experts has years of experience in supply chain optimization and will work with your company to understand your specific needs and goals. We will perform a comprehensive analysis of the existing brand’s supply chain, including its suppliers, logistics, and manufacturing processes, to help you make informed decisions about how to improve it.
The success of any supply chain depends on the quality and reliability of its suppliers. That’s why we perform thorough supplier vetting to ensure that the existing brand’s suppliers meet your company’s strict standards for quality, delivery, and cost-effectiveness.
Our supplier vetting process includes:
We will analyze the existing brand’s suppliers to understand their strengths and weaknesses and identify areas where improvements can be made.
Our team of experts will visit the suppliers’ factories to ensure that they meet our strict standards for quality and production processes.
We will negotiate favorable terms and prices with suppliers, ensuring that your company gets the best possible deal.
The manufacturing process is a critical component of any supply chain, and improving it can have a significant impact on a company’s bottom line. Our team of experts will analyze the existing brand’s manufacturing processes to identify areas where improvements can be made, and work with the manufacturer to implement those improvements.
Logistics is another critical component of any supply chain, and optimizing it can lead to significant cost savings and improved delivery times. Our team of experts will analyze the existing brand’s logistics processes to identify areas where improvements can be made, and work with the logistics provider to implement those improvements.
Linton Group enters the picture after the LOI is signed but before the acquisition in order to mitigate risks and identify cost reduction and supply chain optimization. As this work is completed prior to acquisition, the cost savings and optimization features can be implemented immediately upon purchase. This allows for accurate profitability forecasting and immediate success upon integration into the aggregator brand. Contact Linton Group today to identify how we can help your business increase profitability and streamline the acquisition process.
