“This is an exciting time for A.G Ferrari”, according to John Clougher the new CEO for Ferrari. “With new leadership energy and capital available to invest in our stores and inventory, Ferrari will again be an exciting shopping experience for our great customer base. We thank all our loyal followers for supporting the company during these past difficult times.”

Ferrari is now a subsidiary in the Renwood Opportunities Fund, managed by Renovo Capital and Rosewood Private Investments. Renovo Capital is a private equity firm whose primary focus is on operating turnarounds, bankruptcy reorganizations, debt purchases and out-of-court restructurings for companies in the manufacturing, distribution and service industries.
