About Strauss Innovation
EQT Opportunity executed a thorough restructuring process during the fund’s ownership, including a brand repositioning and the closing down of non-profitable stores. The restructuring resulted in a turn-around and Strauss was transformed from a loss-making business in 2008 to one which was expected to generate profits for the full-year 2011.
In 2008, EQT sold Strauss Innovation to an affiliate of Sun European Partners LLP.
