ERCP acquires Béaba

Equity was drawn from the €300m ERLF II fund, a buyout vehicle raised in 2007. Management holds the remainder of the shares.

CIC Finance led the buyout of Béaba in 2007, with the support of family office EPI and Capzanine. Since then, turnover has grown from €21m to €41m.

The new owners plan to broaden Béaba's product range and brand universe, as well as distribute the company's products in new countries. They will also consider relevant acquisition opportunities.

Established in 1989, and based in the Rhône-Alpes region, Béaba is specialised in developing and marketing babycare products spanning across the meals, bathtime, sleeping and walking universes. Béaba's products are distributed in France, other European countries and the US, mainly through networks of specialised baby care stores.
