"BDO’s performance was superlative. They identified the bidder, conducted a mini-auction to ensure that the right price was achieved and then managed a very tight process that delivered the offered price in on five weeks from exclusivity for quite a complex group. They brought all the resources we needed to bear to ensure we delivered this and managed the anxious vendor as well as the sophisticated buyer. We were very satisfied clients."
Geoffrey Gestetner - Founder and Group MD
“We have worked with Davidson for a number of years and are delighted to have been able to advise them on a successful sale to Genuit Group. It is a great fit for both businesses.”
