Adelis Equity

In partnership with management, Adelis Equity Partners (“Adelis”) is aquiring Pixelz ApS (“Pixelz”) to further support the company’s evolution and growth journey. Current management-owners will continue in their roles and retain significant ownership going forward.

Pixelz is a leader in the image editing and retouching for the fashion industry and with its AI-powered visuals platform, Pixelz assists global brand owners, online retailers, and photo studios to optimize their online visuals, enabling a better online shopping experience which leads to increased online conversion success.

Pixelz was founded in 2011 and has pioneered a hybrid business model by combining automation and a strong operational culture in its delivery centers, together allowing Pixelz to create a unique and highly attractive position in the market for fashion image editing and retouching.

“Pixelz was seeking a partner to help accelerate its international growth and to support the continued development of its business model,” says Thomas Ladefoged, CEO of Pixelz.

”Pixelz has developed a leading platform and service offering within its niche, and we were impressed by the company’s management team and what they have been able to accomplish. We see exciting potential for both the continued roll-out of their current product offering as well as expansion of Pixelz’ business to include other visuals beyond images in the future,” says Joel Russ at Adelis.

Adelis will become majority owner in Pixelz, while management will continue to own a significant share of the company. Together, the parties expect to continue investing in an ambitious growth plan.
