The Nordics have long been on our radar, and we have been delivering projects there for several years, across the food industry and including in plant based and food packaging. We have built longstanding, repeat relationships with food and beverage businesses and private equity investors across the region. The time to be there properly, with a dedicated local presence, is now
We are delighted to welcome Michael Thomas Szczepanski, who joins Food Strategy Associates to lead our Nordic presence. Michael brings deep experience in the region and a sharp understanding of both the investor and corporate landscape across food, beverage, and retail
From Copenhagen, we will support clients across the full spectrum of what we do:
- Commercial and operational due diligence for private equity
- Value creation planning and post-acquisition support
- Growth strategy and portfolio optimization for corporates
- Transformation and strategic execution
What makes the Nordic market particularly interesting right now is the combination of sustained deal flow, increasingly strategic capital allocation, Food Tech emergence and management teams and corporates actively reshaping their portfolios. That environment rewards advisors who can do more than produce analysis, who bring real sector understanding and translate it into decisions that hold up in practice
That is what Food Strategy Associates is built to do. And now we can do it from closer to home for our Nordic clients
