Toronto, ON / London, UK – April 13, 2017 – Lynx Equity is excited to announce its second acquisition of 2017, Croydon, UK’s Label Express. For over thirty years, Label Express has been an industry-leading provider of express labeling services to a wide variety of underserved niche industries. The company’s strong customer service and sales team have driven consistent growth over the past several years. This, coupled with their highly process-oriented operations, including ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 accreditations and the British Retail Packing Accreditation, made them an ideal acquisition for Lynx Equity.

“We can’t think of a better group with whom to continue our expansion in the UK than the team at Label Express. At every level, the staff continues to impress us with their knowledge, efficiency and dedication to providing excellent service with exceptionally quick turnaround,” commented Lynx Equity Vice President Mathew Burpee. Lynx’s London Associate, Sophie Jaubert, echoed these sentiments while noting “the strong management team is committed to staying on indefinitely post-sale. This will not only ensure a smooth transition, but the continued success and ongoing legacy of the business.”

For over ten years, Lynx Equity has been focused on 100% acquisitions of old-economy North American businesses with a history of stable earnings and strong management in place for the transition. At the beginning of this year, it completed its first European acquisition, London’s SignalHome. Lynx Equity continues to actively pursue acquisitions from owners looking to retire across North America and Europe.
