CM-CIC, Unexo and Capitem exit Martin Calais

The three GPs will be selling their 34% stake in Martin Calais to CDER Investissements – a family holding led by Christian Knapp, who used to head aerospace maintenance firm Revima Group prior to its sale to Argos Soditic in March this year. The transaction also sees Martin Calais head Jean-Paul Bailleul sell his shares to CDER.

A debt restructuring will be part of the deal.
