Europe expansion in mobile accesories sector
Business Partner at CONTAKT
Romania
About
CONTAKT is Romania's #1 retailer and distributor of mobile accessories and lifestyle gadgets — twice the size of the next two competitors combined. Over 23 years, the company has built a network of 240+ retail islands in prime shopping-mall locations, served more than 1,000,000 customers in 2025 and grown the Contakt loyalty app to 400,000+ active users, turning a retail footprint into a data-driven, recurring-revenue platform.
The business generated USD 30M in revenue and USD 5M EBITDA in 2025, with margins consistently above 15%. Its model is capital-light — minimal fit-out, low rent and marginal cost per new location — and vertically integrated through direct Asian sourcing, 4 own brands and premium distribution rights for Apple, Samsung, Huawei, Karl Lagerfeld, Guess, Spigen, Cellularline, Pitaka, PanzerGlass and Swissten.
CONTAKT's next chapter is regional. The EUR 4bn Central & Eastern European mobile accessories market is fragmented and ripe for consolidation. Our 3–5 year plan is to double the business organically and triple it through M&A, reaching USD 100M+ in turnover as the leading platform in CEE.
At the Belt and Road Summit we are looking for a strategic or financial partner to invest USD 20–30M in this plan — a private equity or growth investor with CEE appetite, or an Asian manufacturer or brand that wants a proven route into Central & Eastern Europe.
You have the product or the capital; we have the market.
