Waterland Private Equity will support the continued growth and development of the elk® group, marking a significant milestone for this innovative family-owned business. O2 Capital Partners has been the elk® group’s partner since 2017. A well-considered “buy and build” strategy has led to the addition of Pijl Vastgoedonderhoud, VIOS Bouwgroep, and De Goede Vastgoedonderhoud to the company. The elk® Group exemplifies a successful partnership between O2 Capital Partners and an entrepreneur with a distinctive vision, which has resulted in a complementary and fruitful collaboration over the past six years. O2 Capital Partners is grateful to Roel van Elk and all employees of the elk® Group for this valuable partnership.
