I wish them success and very much look forward to working with the MBO team again over the coming years to assist them with the company’s growth.”
“My co-directors and I were delighted to complete our MBO. I’m grateful for the support and guidance we received from both Trethowans and Meridian Corporate Finance and look forward to working with both again in the future,” said Mark Wilkinson of aap3.
