Mike Edmunds, CEO of Trade Interchange, said: “When we decided to explore the possibility of selling the company, we wanted to find a partner who understood our market, our value proposition, and our potential. Rickitt Mitchell ticked all the boxes, and I was impressed by their expertise, professionalism and enthusiasm.
“They guided us through the transaction, supporting myself and the team at every step of the way. They negotiated the best possible terms for us, managed the due diligence process, and ensured a smooth and timely completion. They were always available, responsive, and proactive, and they handled any issues or challenges with professionalism and integrity. I am very happy with the outcome of the sale, and I am grateful to Rickitt Mitchell for their invaluable advice and assistance. They were more than just advisers; they were partners and friends.”
James Moore, country manager for UK & Ireland at Everfield, said: “We were immediately impressed by Trade Interchange’s streamlined solution for managing supply chains, and won over by its strong and experienced team which has worked together for several years and developed strong relationships with customers.
“Bringing Trade Interchange into the Everfield ecosystem will allow us to provide the management team with the additional support, resources and knowledge that will help it to scale and drive international expansion.”
