INVL Private Equity Fund II completes acquisition of Estonia’s largest waste management group Eesti Keskkonnateenused

One of the largest private equity funds in CEE, INVL Private Equity Fund II, has completed the acquisition of a 75% stake in Eesti Keskkonnateenused (EKT), the largest waste management group in Estonia.

While this is the fund’s first investment in Estonia, the acquisition builds on its team’s strong experience in the sector. Back in 2020, the predecessor fund, INVL Baltic Sea Growth Fund, acquired a controlling stake in Eco Baltia, which during the investment period was developed into the largest environmental resource management and recycling group in the Baltics.

“With this transaction, we are backing a strong Estonian market leader with consistent performance. Drawing on our experience with Eco Baltia, we aim to assist EKT in growing and thriving in Estonia’s circular economy. Having more than EUR 400 million to invest, we plan to further support the expansion of EKT and seek other investment opportunities in Estonia and abroad,” said Vytautas Plunksnis, Partner at INVL Private Equity Fund II and INVL Baltic Sea Growth Fund.
