Through this takeover plan, which was deemed "both more protective of the liquidator's interests and more robust in its financial structuring," the company intends to maintain product manufacturing on French soil to ensure full control over its supply chain in the future.

To achieve this, Cafom has entered into a partnership with ARPA, an industrial firm based in Alsace specializing in cooking appliances. The goal is to maintain significant production volumes in France, primarily for high-value-added products such as induction hobs. This production is expected to allow ARPA to create over 50 local jobs in the short term and 130 in the medium-to-long term, following the development of a new oven production and assembly line.

Cafom has also teamed up with EverEver, a Brittany-based start-up, to develop a new range of washing machines, and with SOS Accessoire, a spare parts management specialist, to supply replacement parts to distribution networks involved in after-sales service.

The takeover bid, totaling 18.6 million euros, notably includes the brands (Brandt, De Dietrich, Sauter, and Vedette) and their associated patents, as well as stocks of finished products, maintenance supplies, and various spare and after-sales parts. In addition to this acquisition price, nearly 3.5 million euros will be added, corresponding to the reduction of liabilities in the Brandt France judicial liquidation process through Cafom's direct payment of a portion of the sums owed to secured creditors.
