A JOHNSONS CORPORATE DIVESTMENT

Johnsons is pleased to announce the successful sale of a private, mid-sized Australian business to a synergistic trade buyer. After facilitating a comprehensive, end-to-end sales and negotiations process, our client – Power Protect Pty Ltd – has been acquired by BGIS Asia Pacific for an undisclosed amount. Canberra head-quartered Power Protect is one of Australia’s leading independent providers of critical power services for commercial markets, while BGIS Asia Pacific is a subsidiary of Brookfield Global Integrated Solutions Canada LP – a global leader in facility management services.

The team at Johnsons were pleased to act as lead advisors to Power Protect’s managing director and would like to extend our congratulations to both the vendor and the purchaser.             

In 2021, Johnsons was engaged by Power Protect to undertake a national sales campaign. After 12 years building the Business, its managing director was seeking a new owner / merger partner with the resources and capabilities to help leverage the Business into a national footprint. Within 4 weeks of going to market, Johnson’s proactive approach had secured written offer and acceptance from the Canadian multinational.
