BestValue accompagne la reprise des Entreprises de Peintures Walhin

Wednesday 02 Oct 2024

BestValue is pleased to announce the acquisition of the business assets of Entreprises de Peintures Walhin by Denis Wilmotte.

A fresh start for Denis Wilmotte

Denis Wilmotte is a site manager in the industrial sector and a father. He wanted to put his entrepreneurial skills to good use by taking over a company. His search led him to Entreprises de Peintures Walhin, a well-established family business in Wallonia. The company has 150 years of experience in the painting industry.

Its director, Eric Walhin, was looking for a successor who could continue developing the business. He saw Denis as the ideal candidate. Throughout the acquisition process, Denis received guidance from BestValue, a firm specialising in business transfers and acquisitions. This support helped him navigate each stage with confidence, from evaluating the target to signing the final agreement.

History of Entreprises de Peintures Walhin

Founded in 1963, but with roots dating back to 1874, Entreprises de Peintures Walhin has been led by Eric Walhin since 1999. Specialising in building decoration, industrial painting, and special techniques, the company enjoys a strong local presence and an excellent reputation in the Walloon construction sector.

Guidance Through the Acquisition

Business transfer is not only about supporting sellers. It also involves closely assisting buyers who are ready to embark on the entrepreneurial journey. Taking over a business is, above all, a human adventure. Every acquisition is an opportunity to create, transform, and build. Just like for Denis Wilmotte, our mission at BestValue is to support buyers through each step of the process, from identifying a company to acquire, all the way to closing the deal.

Do you have an acquisition project in mind? Let’s talk about it in full confidentiality.
