Canadian collision repair operator Boyd targeted by PE firms: report
The Boyd Group, a Winnipeg, Manitoba-based operator of non-franchised collision repair centres in North America, has been approached for takeover by private equity firms, according to a report by the Wall Street Journal. Boyd, the report notes, is the only large auto-body repair chain that is currently not owned by private equity investors. Auto-body repair shops have been a source of intense dealmaking of late, in part because of the fragmented nature of the industry.
