PARIS | February 11, 2020 – Drake Star Partners has acted as the exclusive financial advisor to M Capital Partners and private shareholders on the sale of Onefield to an industrial corporate.

Onefield, through its ZEborne brand, is a major French player in the installation of charging stations for electrical vehicles and is ideally positioned to serve this booming industry thanks to its significant territorial coverage.

Onefield is also an important actor in the roll-out of electrical smart meters in France, while its Belgian activities serve local corporate customers on a variety of digital services. Its Moroccan call and technical center provides a clear operational hedge to the group in terms of quality and efficiency.

Loïc-Marie Pequignot, CEO of Onefield, states: "I am enthusiastic about this transaction which will allow to take full benefit of the growth potential of Onefield in the fields of electric mobility and digital services. I am grateful to the Drake Star team which has demonstrated outstanding dedication and execution capabilities on this complex deal.

Onefield is now engaged into its next development stage on sound and promising omens.”
