Euxton Tile Supplies Bought By Earle Group
The Banking team at law firm Irwin Mitchell has advised on the funding deal which has seen Chorley-based Euxton Tile Supplies Ltd being acquired by Earle Group.
Arbuthnot Commercial Asset Based Lending has supported the deal with a £2m facility to provide the desired level of headroom in the transaction.
With the incumbent owner wishing to retire, Arbuthnot Commercial ABL was invited to structure a facility that would also offer the new owner, Julian Palmer, the opportunity to implement a new strategy that will further the company’s leading market position.
Jon Bew, Banking & Finance partner at the Birmingham office of Irwin Mitchell, advised Arbuthnot Commercial Asset Based Lending.
Andrew Rutherford, Commercial Director at Arbuthnot Commercial ABL, said: “Euxton has fantastic potential with a very experienced professional at its helm. No two situations are the same and so it is important to us and to clients that we look at every scenario with both a fresh and an experienced eye. It is only through this approach that clients get the best outcome. We look forward to the potential Julian will realise within Euxton.”
Established over 50 years ago Euxton is one of the largest independent tile distributors in the North West. It offers a wide range of tiles from all leading factories to both trade and retail customers. It prides itself on its award-winning showroom and knowledgeable, long-standing staff.
