"We became acquainted with Cognos France very early on in the process and decided to place our trust in them for the sale of the CPL-OP Emballages Group. We would like to thank the team in charge of the project: Valéry Giard, Clément Matelot and Ali Drissi. Their ability to analyse, negotiate and arbitrate in the common interest was a key factor in the success of the transfer. We particularly appreciated their responsiveness during discussions, the complementary nature of their skills and their alignment with the values shared by the various boards involved in the process. All in all, we were able to work with a caring, human and close-knit team that was both efficient and calm. - Founder of the CPL OP Emballages Group
