Tura Group AB has acquired the Finnish brand Golla
An agreement has been signed where Tura Group AB (publ) “Tura” acquires 100% of the shares in the company Golla Oy “Golla”. The transfer took place on November 1, 2023.
It is a well-known brand that has now been acquired by Tura. Golla has for many years provided the market with primarily bags where the combination of fashion and functionality has been at the forefront.
For several years, Tura has distributed Golla in the Nordic market. With this acquisition, the business can now be scaled up together with our other proprietary brands, which are sold throughout the entire European market.
” For over 25 years, we at Golla have been developing unique and functional design products that appeal to people all over the world. Golla products have won various design awards and have been sold in over 100 countries worldwide over the years. Since our inception, we have focused our efforts on developing lifestyle bags for portable electronic products and have always been a leading brand in this field. We have been working with Tura for many years, and we are now very excited that Tura has chosen to acquire our company to further develop the brand," says Petri Kähkönen, owner and CEO of Golla Oy.
”We have been working with Golla for many years and have consistently been impressed by the multitude of innovations the company has introduced over all these years. Although the brand is not as well-known as it used to be, we see significant opportunities and are really looking forward to presenting an updated product range in the near future. For Tura, this also means adding another proprietary brand, which we will primarily sell throughout Europe," says Stefan Eriksson, CEO of Tura Scandinavia.
Tura paid EUR 1.00 for Golla, which at the time of the transaction had a net debt of approximately EUR 200K. Golla had a turnover of approximately EUR 200K in 2022 with a slightly negative result.
Tura believes that the brand's sales can multiply several times in the coming years and is expected to deliver profitability immediately.
The transfer took place on November 1, 2023.
