🔵 We are pleased to announce the successful exit of Zitouna Capital from Orient Tea - KYUFI with the support of Alternative Business Capital - ABCapital. We are proud that our team acted as exclusive advisor to Orient Tea's top management throughout the transaction - from structuring the deal to securing the financing required to execute the buyout of Zitouna Capital’s stake.
Congratulations to Tarek TALBI and Sabri Ben Guirat on this significant milestone. Their strong ex*****on and long-term vision have positioned Orient Tea as one of the fastest-scaling players in the food innovation sector across multiple markets (North Africa, Europe, GCC...).
This milestone comes on the back of a long-standing partnership with the top management team. Many thanks to Orient Tea for the trust placed in our team since 2019. Having accompanied the company across multiple capital-raising rounds, we take great pride in witnessing its continued growth and look forward to supporting its next chapter of expansion.
We also extend our thanks to Zitouna Capital team for believing in Orient Tea’s potential and for being a value-adding and trustworthy partner throughout the investment period.
On a final note: raising capital marks an important step ; however, successful exits remain the ultimate validation of value creation and performance delivery.
