GT Ferreira backs LekkeSlaap as founders sell up
- LekkeSlaap has been sold to a consortium of local investors including the Dippenaar and Ferreira family offices and Investec.
- Co-founders Jonathan Womersley and Marcel van de Ghinste have exited the business.
- The transaction value of the sale was not disclosed.
The exit of the co-founders could be seen as a pivotal moment for LekkeSlaap, allowing for fresh investment and strategic direction. However, it raises questions about the company's future independence and its ability to maintain its unique brand identity in a competitive market dominated by global players.
