Owner of Klorman, Pierre Van der Poel, commented on the transaction: Taking a complex business to market has its challenges, but we were lucky to have teamed up with KlBenchmark to help us through the process and get the business sold. The manner in which Benchmark communicated and prepared the information was outstanding. A key aspect for me was the way Benchmark presented the business to the market and how they protected the data; at no stage was I in any doubt. It was an interesting and exciting journey, and we achieved a great result. Thank you to all at Benchmark.

Johann Haasbroek from Benchmark International added: We are immensely proud to announce the successful sale of Klorman, a reputable and well-established company in the Australian market that supports various sectors.
