The current owner-manager has secured financial partners to support a renewed focus on value creation at Odiot, with a likely exit envisaged within a limited number of years. Mr. Trutat continues to increase his stake toward 18%-20% while maintaining stable control, demonstrating both ambition and confidence in the business.
Given the company’s limited assets and resources, pursuing overly rapid growth would be risky. Management will need to strike the right balance between expanding the top line and preserving the brand’s artisanal standards and craftsmanship capacity (see valuation section).
