About Orfite
Orfite is an independent investment company that acts as reference shareholder in the transfer of French businesses. It takes part in the financing of capital transfers and keeps the company's ownership stable during the transition, while leaving day-to-day management to the executives.
Its customers are owners and managers of French SMEs and mid-sized companies seeking a capital transfer. Orfite is owned by its team and works with associate-investors who are themselves business owners or family holdings and who invest alongside it. It states that it does not promise returns to its associates and prioritises each company's commercial and industrial project.
The first operation of what became Orfite was the 1992 acquisition of EuroCave. The company is headquartered in Villeurbanne, France. By its own account, it has carried out about sixty capital transfers over roughly thirty years.
Product: Reference shareholding and co-investment for the capital transfer of French SMEs and mid-sized companies.
