Avio-Diepen, a Proponent company, is pleased to announce the sale of all its shares in Tennessee based joint venture ADPma. The shares owned by Avio-Diepen were sold to the existing shareholders of ADPma LLC. The joint venture was originally established in 2002. Due to a changing market environment, Avio-Diepen took a more remote position from the venture back in 2012 and allowed the business to prosper independently which served both companies well.
“After the acquisition of Avio-Diepen by Kapco Global and subsequent formation of the new company Proponent, we jointly determined that it was in ADPma’s best interest to pursue a new path independent of Proponent,” explains Proponent Global CEO and President Andrew Todhunter. “We had been successful in our cooperation with our joint venture partners and we wish them all the best for the future.”
