GA Group announced the acquisition of Done Right Merchandising, a family-owned provider of store opening, remodeling, fixturing, and retail services. The deal marks a strategic expansion for GA Group as it broadens beyond retail liquidation into a more diversified retail services platform.
Founded in 2006, Done Right Merchandising has built a national reputation for new store builds, remodels, resets, fixturing, and reverse logistics services for retailers across the United States. Through the acquisition, GA Group aims to create cross-selling opportunities and offer retailers a full lifecycle suite of services.

Founded more than 50 years ago, GA Group provides advisory, valuation, liquidation, lending, restructuring advisory, investment banking, and real estate services across multiple industries. The company is majority-owned by funds managed by Oaktree Capital Management.
