Berlin – While working at SMP, members of the YPOG team advised Berlin-based early-stage investor on its PE co-investment in Perfect Drive Sports Group (PDSG). With the All4Golf brand established in the DACH region and the Clubhouse Golf brand from the UK, the company is considered the leading online retailer for golf equipment in Europe and currently employs more than 150 members of staff at its two offices in Hanover and Manchester. In addition to a wide range of products, PDSG also offers its customers service in terms of individual adaptations or even repairs. The co-investment was realized with the private equity investment company Bregal Unternehmerkapital. Earlier this year Bregal Unternehmerkapital invested in PDSG and became the majority shareholder in the company. The investment and the operational expertise of Project A is intended to accelerate the further expansion and internationalization of PDSG’s business beyond its current markets. Project A received comprehensive legal and tax advice on the transaction from a team consisting of Martin Schaper, Malte Bergmann and Jonas Huth.
