AUA Private Equity Partners, LLC (“AUA Private Equity”), is pleased to announce that it has taken a minority stake in Marley Spoon Group SE (“Marley Spoon Group” or “MSG”) following Marley Spoon Group’s acquisition of bistroMD, LLC (“bistroMD”), which was previously owned by AUA Private Equity, LLC (“AUA Private Equity”). bistroMD is the leading doctor-designed ready-to-eat meal plan in the US, and since its founding in 2005 it has developed a national blueprint in the medically tailored weight loss industry. AUA Private Equity acquired bistroMD in March 2021. Since that investment, AUA Private Equity has worked closely with Founder & CEO Edward Cederquist and Dr. Caroline Cederquist to grow the business. David Benyaminy, Partner of AUA Private Equity Partners, added: “bistroMD is a unique player in the U.S. meal plan market, and we’ve enjoyed collaborating with Ed and the management team to grow the business. We are excited about bistroMD’s next phase as a part of the Marley Spoon Platform.”   The transaction was led by Partner David Benyaminy and Senior Associate Jordana Cooper. https://lnkd.in/eVVQj4PD
