Wofford Advisors Executes over $1 Billion of Private Equity M&A Transactions in the Last Twelve Months
PR Newswire
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., Aug. 1, 2024
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., Aug. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Wofford Advisors LLC, a top ranked strategic advisory boutique specializing in M&A transactions in the transportation, logistics and supply chain sectors of the economy, proudly announces that it has surpassed $1 billion of closed transaction value on behalf of its private equity clients during the past twelve months. This achievement reflects the firm's rapid market share growth after emerging as a buyside advisor on behalf of major corporate clients, such as Ryder Systems Inc and Warehouse Services, Inc. Wofford Advisors, which was ranked as a top ten Transportation & Logistics M&A advisor in both 2022 and 2023, was formed in 2021 by Chris Wofford, former Transportation & Logistics (T&L) group head at numerous top tier investment banks, including Wells Fargo, Bank of America and Macquarie Capital.
"We couldn't be happier with how the team has been performing, particularly in a challenging M&A environment," said Chris Wofford, founder and Managing Partner of the firm. "We had immediate mind-share with major corporates when we formed the company, but now we have proven ourselves to the private equity community as well – and as a result we have a great balance of both buyside and sellside mandates."
Wofford Advisors most recently advised Astira Capital Partners, formed by senior members of Abry Partners, on its acquisition of ConData Global, H.I.G. Capital's acquisition of Ascent Global Logistics and Endeavour Capital's sale of Impact Fulfillment Services to Ryder. With a staff of over ten professionals dedicated to the T&L sector, Wofford further differentiated itself by hiring Managing Director, Ron Chang, a 32 year senior executive of UPS, who acts as the equivalent of a private equity operating partner on behalf of Wofford's clients.
