We strongly believe that Boston Trade will make a great partner in our continued growth and expansion." Acquirer Boston Trade is a national leader in renovation, conversion, and new-build projects for the hotel and hospitality industry. The company's focus on design-forward interior environments that exceed their clients' economic, aesthetic, and functional requirements aligns perfectly with Design Environments' long track record of service excellence to similar client sets. The acquisition is backed by Blackford Capital of Grand Rapids, Michigan, a leading private equity firm in the lower middle market with over $650 million in transaction value and 35 acquisitions at the time of the Design Environments acquisition. Boston Trade CEO Greg Kadens remarked, "We are thrilled to add such a prestigious and well-respected company to our portfolio. Design Environments is so well run that we can immediately focus on the opportunities created by combining it with our hotel interior design and procurement business. Donna's leadership throughout the years has brought the company to this point, and we look forward to continuing to work with her as we strive to provide industry-leading services and solutions to our clients." Regarding the Design Environments transaction, Benchmark International Transaction Director William Sullivan stated, "Our client's goals and values were highly aligned with the buyer we sourced for them. From the leadership tier of the acquiring firm to the fund partners backing the deal, a shared vision was clear from the start. We are very proud of the role that Benchmark International played in the process."
