Modern Group of Companies acquired by VINCI Construction
Modern Group of Companies is a construction and engineering company in New Brunswick that was supported by Doane Grant Thornton’s M&A throughout the transaction process.

A legacy founded in people, culture, and quality
McCallum Environmental has been at the forefront of regulatory approvals and environmental assessments throughout Nova Scotia and across Canada since 2001. The company started with one employee and now has more than 25 full-time professionals with a strong reputation for delivering successful projects to clients.
After 23 years, shareholders at McCallum Environmental decided the time was right to sell. Their priority was finding a buyer who would continue their legacy. This meant ensuring the buyer was the right fit and would uphold their values of prioritizing employees, culture, client approach, and quality project delivery.
Our M&A team were brought into this deal from day one to help take the business to market. We introduced them to relevant strategic parties who aligned with McCallum Environmental’s values. Our tax team also provided services to facilitate this phase of the deal.
Ultimately, the shareholders at MacCallum Environmental found the right buyer in Strum Environmental. They’ll continue their involvement with the business and supporting clients. With both businesses aligned on culture and a client-centric approach, this transaction helps place Strum in a strong position for better meeting the needs of clients across Atlantic Canada.
