Deloitte advised Unisport-Saltex Group

28.11.2024

We are pleased to announce that Deloitte Corporate Finance acted as the exclusive sell-side adviser to Unisport-Saltex Group (owned by a Finnish private equity Vaaka Partners) in the sale of their Indoor division to Accent Equity, a Swedish private equity firm. Signing took place last Friday, 22nd November. The closing of the transaction is expected in Q1-2025.

In 2023, Unisport-Saltex Group and its owners decided that the best way forward for the business was to organize it in two stand-alone divisions, Indoor and Outdoor, in order for them to reach their full potential. The Indoor division will continue as Unisport under the new ownership while the Outdoor division, focusing on producing of artificial grass systems and sports surfacing, will continue as Saltex under Vaaka Partners’ ownership.

With over 100 years of history, Unisport is the leading Nordic provider of indoor sports facilities and sports equipment, serving both the public and private sectors in Finland, Sweden, Norway and Denmark. It operates across all stages of sports facility lifecycle, offering, e.g., installation of its own and third-party products to create indoor sports facilities, selling sports equipment, and providing maintenance and end-of-life replacement services for existing facilities.

Deloitte Corporate Finance team consisted of Peter Sandfeld Olesen, Tore Sturmer Heyden, Henrik Wickström, Jens Brochner Grosbol, Frederik Holm Andersen, and Otto Ahonen. Additionally, our Deal Transformation (FI), Technology Transformation (FI) as well as Tax and Legal teams (FI, SE, NO & DK) provided carve-out advisory and separation management office services to the company throughout the process. 

Deloitte warmly congratulates all parties involved.
