Deal details

Vectis Private Equity and Arxior acquire a majority stake in Van Moer, with the current CEO, retaining a minority stake.

Van Moer is globally active in the production and distribution of certified, high-tech, and customer-specific workwear. The Belgian company was founded in 1922 and has been able to grow significantly in recent years. Van Moer develops protective workwear with a focus on the industrial, cleanroom, healthcare and military market segments.

Wagram, a Dutch private equity firm, acquired Van Moer in 2018 from Williamson-Dickie (part of US conglomerate VF Corporation), together with current CEO Kenny Van Riel. After a successful 6-year partnership, Wagram passes on the torch to Vectis and Arxior.

Arxior and Vectis aim to support Van Moer in further growth and innnovation, with a focus on buy-&-build to accelerate growth and expand into new markets.
