We connect funds and investors with FMCG and pharma manufacturers.
Wafa Partners sources and qualifies opportunities between funds, family offices, and strategic investors in the region and established FMCG and pharma manufacturers across Europe and MENA — representing owners through a partnership, growth raise, or sale, and surfacing vetted targets for investors before they reach a wider market.
We represent you through a partnership, growth capital raise, or full sale — discreetly, and on your timeline.
We source and qualify FMCG and pharma manufacturers matched to your mandate, before they reach a wider process.
Wafa Partners is a boutique deal-origination firm focused on FMCG and pharma manufacturing. We work on mandate for funds, family offices, and strategic investors in the region, sourcing and qualifying acquisition and partnership opportunities across Europe and MENA. At the same time, we work directly with owners and management teams exploring their options, representing their interests through to a decision.
In practice, that means every introduction we make has already been qualified on both sides — the investor's mandate and appetite, and the owner's readiness and terms — before a conversation ever starts.
We typically work with companies generating USD 25 million to 100 million in revenue — the profile our investor network actively looks for.
The process starts with a conversation, whichever side you're on. If it makes sense to continue, we sign a mutual NDA before making any introduction. Nothing moves without your sign-off.
Every conversation is confidential, and there's no obligation to proceed — for owners weighing their options or investors reviewing fit against a mandate.
