Germany's dominant outdoor brand, Jack Wolfskin, has again been put in play by its owners, according to an unconfirmed report in Financial Times Deutschland and picked up by the Bloomberg news service.
The newspaper reported that the private equity arm of Barclays Plc and the German firm Quadriga Capital are in negotiations with three bidders interested in acquiring Jack Wolfskin, which is Germany’s dominant outdoor brand. The report follows similar reports last summer that indicated the two investment firms were shopping the brand.
The deadline for bids for Jack Wolfskin is at the end of next week, FT Deutschland reported.
