How can acquisitions support growth while preparing the company for an IPO?

As it prepared for an IPO, Sequoia Logística, controlled by Warburg Pincus, engaged JK Capital to advise on its acquisition programme.

We supported the entire process, from valuing target companies through contract closing. The first acquisition was NowLog in October 2019, adding a strong presence across nine states in Brazil's Northeast.

In January 2020, Sequoia completed the acquisition of TA Logística, adding R$280 million in revenue and expanding into less-than-truckload air and road freight.
