Afinum sells Copytrend

The sale is an exit for the GP's fourth buyout fund, Afinum Siebte Beteiligungsgesellschaft, which held a final close on €280m in April 2013.

The business made 10 add-on acquisitions with Afinum's support, and the number of locations grew from 14 to 32.

It also opened a web shop to optimise ordering processes and acquired new customers to increase recurring revenues.
