MCA has been acquired by Driveline

June 5, 2007

Merchandising Corporation of America (“MCA”) provides third-party retail merchandising services to consumer products companies in the mass merchant, specialty, dollar, supermarket, drug store, convenience store and other retail channels.

Situation:

  • The founder and CEO had built MCA to the point where the Company needed a strategic partner / investor.  He was seeking partial to full liquidity of his ownership position.

Challenges:

  • The CEO was key to MCA’s historical growth, vision, and key customer relationships, yet wanted to step away from the business within a reasonably short period of time
  • A single retailer within the dollar store retail channel was the primary servicing focus for many of its customers

Successful Solution:

  • Anderson LeNeave contacted a focused group of strategic buyers, including publicly-held, privately owned and private equity backed companies
  • MCA was sold to Driveline Holdings, Inc., a portfolio company of Lake Capital
