英国知名PE投资机构BBE近日透漏，经过投资研究部3个月时期的考察与调研，计划向马来西亚成长最快的Fang Fong Jewellery Sdn Bhd注资3000万英镑，收购其71%的控制股权，据了解，双方已签订意向收购协议。
Fang Fong Jewellery Sdn Bhd创建1998年，是集黄金、钻石、宝石、玉器等研发、加工、跨国批发零售于一体的珠宝公司。总部位于马来西亚槟城，拥有分布在马来西亚、中东、印度等国生产、研发、销售等员工1000多人。
Fang Fong Jewellery Sdn Bhd恪守倾情打造精品首饰的服务理念，与罗马、米兰等地的国际顶级珠宝设计师合作，为全球女性度身打造经典时尚、高贵典雅的珠宝首饰!通过大批优秀管理、设计人才，洞识当今国际首饰潮流，锐意创新，开拓进取，在同行业中率先经营高品质珠宝。
Fang Fong Jewellery Sdn Bhd自成立初期，就与印度、迪拜等黄金珠宝需求大国进行长时间的出口合作，现目前已形成遍布中东及亚太地区的营销网络。Fang Fong Jewellery Sdn Bhd每进入一地新市场，就以其独有的文化理念、纯正的品质、优美典雅的款式受到当地消费者的喜爱，迅速成为马来西亚成长最快、实力最强的珠宝公司。
据悉，此前Fang Fong Jewellery Sdn Bhd也接受到其他投资机构的收购请求，但最终结果被BBE抢先收购，因为黄金珠宝产业的快速增长，加上全球经济的不确定性及通胀预期，更多的消费者选择黄金珠宝进行避险，已有越来越多的风投将目光聚焦在黄金珠宝领域。
ACQUISITION OF MALAYSIA JEWELLERY CO. BY ENGLAND PE
Renown English PE company BBE announced that after a 3-month investigation and research, it planned to invest in Malaysia’s fastest growing Jewellery Fang Fong Jewellery Sdn Bhd. It will invest 30 million pounds to acquire 71% stake. MOU has been signed by both parties toward this acquisition。
Fang Fong Jewellery Sdn Bhd was established in 1998. The core businesses are research, processing, global wholesale and retail of gold, diamond, precious stones, jade, etc. It is headquartered in Penang, Malaysia. Total employees in the production, research and sales department in Malaysia, Middle East, and India exceeds 1000 people。
The service principle of Fang Fong Jewellery Sdn Bhd is to wholeheartedly create exquisite jewellery. It cooperates with top international designers from cities like Rome, Milan in order to create fashion-leading, classy jewellery for women world-wide. With a large team of excellent managers, creative designers who are in touch with the latest international trends and fashions, it is now one of the leaders in high end jewellery in this industry。
Since its establishment, Fang Fong Jewellery Sdn Bhd has maintained export contracts with large importers from India, Dubai and has created a sale network spanning across the middle east and Asia pacific. Whenever it entered a new market, it will rely on its unique culture, purity of product quality, magnificent design to quickly establish itself in the consumer market, and thus rising quickly to be one of the fastest growing jewellery company in Malaysia。
According to sources, Fang Fong Jewellery Sdn Bhd had been approached by other institutions with intention of acquisition. However it seems BBE got the upper edge this time. The gold and jewellery industry has been enjoying a high rate of growth, due to the instability of global economies and high inflation which caused more investors to choose gold and jewellery to preserve the value of their money。
