Enterprise Investors increases its stake in Anwim

Anwim was founded in 1992 by two entrepreneurs and initially it dealt solely with the wholesale of fuels. In 2009 the company launched retail operations under the MOYA brand and created an independent nationwide chain of petrol stations. Anwim is present in all Poland’s voivodeships, with outlets along the main transit routes and local roads as well as in towns and cities. In addition to petrol sales, the chain’s broad offer includes well-stocked mini stores, Caffe MOYA outlets selling food and coffee, car wash facilities and tailored services for business clients. MOYA leads the Polish market in terms of growth dynamics.

Enterprise Investors entered Anwim in 2018, when it had 180 petrol stations. Only in the first three quarters of this year the chain expanded by another 29 stations, and it is set to number c. 310 by the end of 2020. Last year, Anwim’s revenues amounted to EUR 900 million.

“We are very pleased that Mr. Witold Butkiewicz, Anwim’s founder, will remain a significant shareholder and chairman of the supervisory board. The last two years are irrefutable proof of how much can be achieved through harmonious cooperation between an entrepreneur and a private equity fund,” said Sebastian Król, the partner at Enterprise Investors responsible for this investment.

Enterprise Investors is one of the largest private equity firms in Central and Eastern Europe. Active since 1990, the firm has raised nine funds with total capital exceeding EUR 2.5 billion. These funds have invested EUR 2 billion in 144 companies across a range of sectors and exited 134 companies with total gross proceeds of EUR 4.1 billion.
