The challenge

Support the Management Buy Out of a well-known brand and market leader. This involved navigating the transition from the legacy X Brand to “NewCo” through a management buy-out, managing reputational risk and ensuring required time-sensitive regulatory, operational, and branding hurdles were achieved.

Our approach

Led a phased transformation strategy including stakeholder engagements, brand audits, and project management tools to execute the buy-out and launch a new brand identity.

The results

Achieved 100% operational transition, complete internal brand adoption, full client retention, regulatory approval, and established “NewCo” as a leading voice in Zimbabwe's advisory sector.
