RICHMOND, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Harris Williams, a global investment bank specializing in M&A advisory services, announces it advised Magaya Corporation (Magaya), a portfolio company of LLR Partners (LLR), on its recapitalization from funds advised by Apax Digital, the growth equity arm of Apax Partners (Apax). Magaya is a leading provider of cloud-based supply chain automation and logistics software for freight forwarders, customs brokers, and other international logistics providers. The transaction was led by Andy Leed, Erik Szyndlar, Ryan Costa, Colin Chapin and Sean McGann of the Harris Williams Technology Group.
“International logistics is undergoing an industry-wide digital transformation, and Magaya is playing a central role in helping freight forwarders become more agile and resilient through its modern digital freight platform,” said Andy Leed, a managing director at Harris Williams. “It was a pleasure working with CEO Gary Nemmers, Magaya’s co-founders, and management on this transaction, and we are excited to see what the company accomplishes in their continued partnership with LLR and with their new partner Apax Digital.”
“This investment represents another high-profile transaction for Harris Williams within the broader supply chain and logistics technology sector,” said Ryan Costa, a director at Harris Williams. “The rapidly changing global trade environment, which is characterized by growing trade volumes, increasing complexity, and ongoing diversification away from single-sourced supply chains, is not only driving strong demand for Magaya’s solutions, but also fueling investment activity across the broader market. We expect strong investor and corporate buyer interest to continue as these trends create new challenges for organizations.”
