The company has built its success on its recognized creative expertise, premium positioning and French-made products, a 100% digital approach and a well-mastered customer service. Cotton Bird employs around 100 people at its two sites in Lille and Perpignan and has experienced average annual growth of more than 15% since 2015 to reach \u20ac17 million in sales by 2021, 30% of which is international.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Anxious to ensure the success of their succession while preserving Cotton Bird&#8217;s independence, the founders have organized the managerial transmission of the company over the past two years by entrusting the general management to a duo composed of Kevin Ha and Julie Joaris. The two managers, who are taking along a dozen executives who are investing alongside them in the operation, are continuing the development plan initiated by the founders: consolidation of the brand in France, Germany and Spain, expansion of the product offering and continued international development with the opening of new countries.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The efficient process led by Largilli\u00e8re Finance allowed to set the best conditions for all parties involved in this MBO and to identify the best candidates to support the growth of Cotton Bird. This transaction was completed through the implementation of a bank acquisition financing from Caisse d&#8217;Epargne Hauts-de-France.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>&#8220;We are very happy to hand over the reins of Cotton Bird to Julie and Kevin.
