ABC Mokka focuses on providing coffee service solutions for large and medium-large accounts in the office coffee service market segment as well as on the sale of coffee-making equipment. The company is the result of the merger in 2012 of ABC Kantineautomater (founded in 2003) and Mokka
Kompagniet (founded in 2008). Through the merger, a strong growing player on the coffee service market in Denmark was created, with a strong presence particularly in the Copenhagen area. This is a region where many large companies have their global or Nordic headquarters.
Frans Van Tilborg, CEO of Miko, comments: "Two years ago we started a search for companies that would give us a strong foothold in the Scandinavian markets. In March of this year, this resulted in the succesful acquisition of Kaffekompaniet in Sweden. We are pleased that we can now add Denmark to our growing list of home markets. We are especially happy that the three co-founders of ABC Mokka have agreed to retain a minority share in the company and to continue their respective management roles.Their remaining 30 % shareholding is subject to a put and call option agreement which can be exercised starting in five years time.
This acquisition fits perfectly into our long-term strategy to set-up coffee service organizations through subsidiaries in a growing number of countries, currently Belgium, the Netherlands, France, the United Kingdom, Germany, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland , Australia, Sweden and now Denmark."
