Ashtons Legal deliver another successful transaction with sale of Beam Group Limited
Posted 29/01/2015
Ashtons Legal have recently advised the shareholders of Beam Group Limited in connection with its sale to a large distribution company for an undisclosed sum.
Beam – a leading distributor of premium small electrical kitchen appliances and exclusive UK distributors for Cuisinart, Kitchenaid and Magimix – operates from a purpose built distribution centre in Swavesey, Cambridgeshire. Established 30 years ago, the business has gone from strength to strength in recent years, marked by its entrance this year into the prestigious ”Cambridgeshire Limited” list of the top 100 businesses in the county.
The Ashtons Legal team was led by Corporate Partner Mark Whittaker with assistance from LeAnne Gilmore-Dean (Corporate), Ron Clare (Commercial Property) and Claire Sleep (Employment).
David Speet, Managing Director of Beam Group said: “Mark and his team enabled us to complete the sale in record time. We had complete peace of mind knowing that a member of the Ashtons Legal team was always available to advise on specific issues.”
Mark Whittaker said: “It was a pleasure working with David and Helen at Beam to help them achieve a fantastic result in a very short space of time. From the moment we were instructed, to completion of the sale was achieved in a little over five weeks. It was great that the team here were able to respond so quickly and deliver a smooth transaction in such a quick turn around. This is a real testament to the willingness of everybody to get stuck-in.”
Mark added: “This deal represents another significant corporate transaction for the team in 2014/15 and is a real pat on the back for all the hard work put in by everybody over the last 12-18 months.”
