Industry – Veterinary Equipment

We acted for the shareholders of Kahu Veterinary Equipment Limited on the sale to Nasdaq First North Growth Marketlisted Vimian Group AB of 100% of the shares in Kahu Veterinary Equipment Limited.

Kahu Vet is a New Zealand-based supplier of veterinary products in New Zealand and Australia. Established in 2010, the company has a broad offering of veterinary orthopedic implants, surgical instruments, equipment as well pharmaceuticals and consumables. Most products are sold under Kahuvet’s own brand Knight Benedikt to more than 700 veterinary clinics in New Zealand and Australia.
In addition, Kahuvet offers training for advanced surgical procedures in its own educational center. The company has 18 employees based in Australia and New Zealand, and the two founding partners will continue to lead Kahu Vet Group as part of Vimian.

We advised the vendor on all aspects of the transaction, including drafting and negotiating the sale & purchase agreement, co-investment agreements, satisfying conditions precedent and attending to completion.

We recently instructed Burton Partners on the successful sale of our medical laboratory testing business.  Given the dynamic nature of the industry a number of legal issues arose during the course of the transaction which Burton Partners addressed for our benefit.  Their solutions were pragmatic, and their advice was clear.  They were a capable member of the transaction team, as a key advisor and, at appropriate times, leading the process. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Hayden Smith and his team on a transaction.
