Antonio Borja – Founder & Managing Partner of AB1 Capital
We will continue what is important to you
We seek a single traditional, cash-generative company within the UK's industrial sector, particularly one with a specialism and whose owner is looking to retire. We are not intermediaries or consultants.
Post-acquisition, the company will be led by Antonio-Borja, an industrial engineer with over a decade of Supply Chain experience at Cadbury, Unilever, Mars, and Danone. He plans to bring the same commitment and discipline to growing the business alongside the existing team as he did during his Muay-Thai career, where he became a two-time national champion.
The AB1 Capital team is dedicated to nurturing and growing a single industrial business, with a focus on sustainable, long-term growth. We employ a flexible investment approach to achieve this vision.
