The Stratulat Albulescu team was coordinated by Partner Cristina Man, with the close support of Senior Associate Adrian Hlistei-Muresan.
Stratulat Albulescu advises QeOPS and its shareholders on their partial exit towards Cargus, a major courier service provider in Romania, owned by Mid Europa Partners.
The acquisition will strengthen Cargus' value-added service offering for its customers, in line with the company's strategic investments over the past two years, focusing mostly on digitization and improvement of the overall customer experience.
Moreover, the transaction highlights the company's commitment to the e-commerce segment, which expects to continue its upward trend, with a double-digit increase in the coming years.
QeOPS is a Romanian company specialised in logistics for online commerce (e-fulfillment), owned and run by Paul and Gabriel Copil. With over 50% increase in turnover in 2020, QeOPS was rapidly achieving revenues over one million euro in 2020, an evolution that brings it to the first 200 logistics companies in Romania (by turnover).
Mid Europa Partners is a leading buyout investor focused on the growth markets of Central and Eastern Europe with over €5.3 billion of funds raised and managed since inception. Established in 1999, Mid Europa has pioneered private equity in the region. Among one of the most notable investments of Mid Europa Partners, we can name the acquisition of Cargus in 2018. Cargus is a leading courier, express and parcel service provider in Romania, offering last mile delivery to over 85,000 customers, including business clients, e-commerce retailers and private individuals.
