Kain Lawyers is pleased to have advised Arbor Permanent Owners on its equity and debt capital raising and the successful deployment of that capital in acquiring 100% of Allmesh Engineering Pty Ltd (t/as East West Engineering).

Arbor Permanent Owners, co-founded in April 2024, brings together entrepreneurs, CEOs, and investors with a shared vision of creating value across industries and geographies. Its distinctive business model starts by identifying a cornerstone business as the foundation for growth and leveraging its cash flow and carefully managed debt to finance further investments.

The team’s expertise spans business ownership, investment strategy, and operational excellence, emphasising technical capability, practical execution, and cultivating strong relationships. Arbor is dedicated to fostering the sustainability of Australian businesses while driving long-term success.

Headquartered in Sydney’s Northern Beaches, East West Engineering has a 40-year operating history in manufacturing and distributing materials handling equipment. The leading family-owned business offers a broad range of products, including forklift parts, crane attachments, and safety equipment, with 3,000 active products flowing through its manufacturing facility.
