Weinberg Capital Partners signs an agreement with the Daher group to acquire its technical containers and shelters business

10/06/2026

Weinberg Capital Partners’ WCP Eiréné fund has signed an agreement with the Daher group to acquire its technical containers and shelters business, which primarily serves the defense market. This carve-out opens a new phase of growth for the company, which will become independent under the leadership of its current head, Stéphane Rossignol.

With revenue of more than €30 million, Daher Montrichard Industrie is the French leader in technical containers and shelters, mainly for military applications: standard containers, specialized containers, and technical shelters that protect missiles, engines, radars and communication systems. The company designs, manufactures and maintains its equipment at its production site in Montrichard, in the Centre-Val de Loire region, and has 145 employees.

Drawing on long-standing relationships with major defense players, Daher Montrichard Industrie has established itself as a recognized partner in the most demanding segments of the market, thanks to the excellence of its expertise and its ability to handle complex projects.

The WCP Eiréné fund is thus supporting Daher Montrichard Industrie at a key stage in its development. This partnership is intended to help the company pursue its ambitions: strengthening its presence in its historical markets, winning new segments and customers (particularly in the civil sector and internationally), and exploring new external growth opportunities.

The transaction remains subject to customary conditions precedent, including the required regulatory approvals in the relevant jurisdictions.

“We are convinced that the project led by Weinberg Capital Partners represents a development opportunity for the Montrichard business, its employees and its expertise. The buyer’s ability to support the business’s growth over the long term, as well as its attention to the site’s jobs and skills, were decisive factors in our thinking. This project should enable the business to continue its development under the best possible conditions, while Daher continues to focus its investments on its main strategic priorities in aeronautics and aerodefense.”
Alain Jory – Executive Vice President Industry of the Daher group
“This transaction marks a major milestone for our site, which is set to become an independent entity. We are delighted to begin this new phase of development alongside Weinberg Capital Partners and the WCP Eiréné fund, whose in-depth knowledge of our sector was decisive in our choice. This partnership will allow us to build on the solid foundations we have established with our teams and our top-tier customers to continue growing in Europe and strengthen our leading position in France.”
Stéphane Rossignol – Site Director and Head of Daher Montrichard Industrie
“Stéphane Rossignol’s vision for the development of Daher Montrichard Industrie convinced us of the project’s merits, and it is with this conviction that we are joining forces with his teams today. Their niche technical expertise and leading position in the most demanding segments make them a partner of choice. This transaction is fully in line with our strategy of supporting strategic French companies that benefit from high barriers to entry and recognized market positions with major defense manufacturers. This carve-out, which ensures the company’s autonomy, is the WCP Eiréné fund’s sixth investment. We are continuing to deploy the fund actively and selectively, and are reviewing numerous new investment opportunities.”
Lionel Mestre – Partner and Managing Director of the WCP Eiréné & WCP Eiréné Développement funds at Weinberg Capital Partners
