Backed by a large, well-invested and reusable asset base, Lauralu delivers integrated infrastructure solutions at speed and scale to meet the critical requirements of its blue-chip industrial clients. The vast majority of Lauralu\u2019s operational performance is generated under multi-year rental contracts, underpinned by a high renewal rate, reflecting the mission-critical nature of the infrastructure it provides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Acquired and led by CEO Olivier Hohn since 2014, and backed by Evolem since 2018, Lauralu has built a strong track record of sustained growth through organic expansion and targeted acquisitions scaling from \u20ac4m in revenue in 2014 to c.\u20ac80m in 2025 and now manages over 400,000 sqm of deployed infrastructure across Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Following an auction process led by Investec teams, Eurazeo Infrastructure Partners has acquired a majority stake in Lauralu Group, with the support of local ecosystem investors, including Origine Partners, Croissance Sud, Sofilaro and IRDI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Eurazeo will support Lauralu\u2019s growth through a proactive asset management strategy focused on strengthening the rental model, enhancing the organization and pursuing selective M&amp;A in a highly fragmented market. Through this investment, Eurazeo also advances its sustainability objectives by supporting a circular asset model driven by high reuse rates, relocatable structures and low embedded carbon, in full alignment with the EU taxonomy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Our role<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Investec acted as exclusive financial advisor to Lauralu\u2019s shareholders throughout the sale process:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Deal preparation<\/strong>: we prepared the business for sale by <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>defining the equity story, <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>reviewing management\u2019s business plan, <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>monitoring vendor due diligence, <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>to create the right set of marketing documentation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>We also shaped the transaction strategy (profile of process &amp; related pace) based on feedback received from pre-process discussions with a selection of potential acquirers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Deal execution<\/strong>: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>we managed an auction process with a limited number of qualified bidders,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>supported the management team in meetings with prospective bidders, <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>supervised the bidders&#8217; due diligence phase,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>assisted in the final negotiations of the transaction documentation to secure the most favorable transaction terms.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>This deal illustrates our ability to assist private equity funds and family offices in selling fast-growing pan-European platforms and further reinforces our expertise within the professional rental market.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<section class=\"content--block quoteBlock \">\n    <div class=\"holder\">\n        <div class=\"stories slide-up d-flex\" data-scroll=\"\">\n                            <div class=\"stories__bg\">\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.investec.com\/advisory\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Olivier-Hohn-v3.png\"\n                        alt=\"\" \/>\n                <\/div>\n            \n            <blockquote class=\"stories__desc\" >\n                <span class=\"stories__desc_quote\">\u201c\u201d<\/span>\n\n                                    <div class=\"justified\"><p>I want to give a huge thank you to the Investec team, who I really enjoyed working with.
