“After 60 years in private hands it was very important to me to find the right buyer for William Levene as well as realise the right price. Cavendish did a thorough and professional job in achieving both these goals”.

Michael Levene, Chairman, Best Direct

''The comprehensive exit review together with thorough pre-sale grooming by Caroline Belcher established the platform for this sale. The Cavendish team skillfully structured the sale process and further negotiated through a protracted and difficult climate to secure a very satisfactory sale. They were professional in every department.''

Mike Thorpe, Managing Director of Express Finance

"The Exit Review process managed by Caroline Belcher was very good at defining what were the priorities to exit and galvanising the management team into making the necessary changes. Without this intervention, we would not have been able to attract such interest in the market place nor have been able to achieve this price."

Eric Winkler, owner and Managing Director, Saitek

"This deal provides an excellent platform for the Levolux business to continue its overseas expansion. As well as the compelling strategic fit, Alumasc provides an excellent home for the Levolux brand and team. We are delighted with the outcome and the support extended to us by Cavendish."

John Stern, Chairman, Levolux

"We were delighted with the personal service offered by the team at Cavendish. The process was managed professionally and we were confident that the team understood the intimacies of a private sale including the need to maintain competitive tension throughout the process and the need to maintain confidentiality."

Julia Langkraehr, shareholder, Retail Profile Ltd

“Cavendish Corporate Finance were very supportive throughout the transaction, giving useful advice at a number of critical stages of the process.

"Cavendish brought commitment and focus to the tender process for the sale of HFL. They had the necessary specialist expertise and offered consistently high quality advice to a satisfied client."

Sir Tristram Ricketts, CEO, HFL Ltd

"Cavendish made full use of their very strong international network to create competitive tension throughout the process and drive the sale to completion. The significant multiple of revenue achieved for an early stage, pre-profits business is testament to the ability of the Cavendish team to manage negotiations and maximise value. Overall, I was delighted by the service we received and the result achieved."

Mark Duffin, Chief Executive, Enviro-Fresh

"During the lengthy negotiations with Schneider Electric, we received the full attention of Cavendish's experienced and dedicated deal team. Cavendish helped us navigate through a process that was new to us but familiar to Schneider and remained focussed on the commercial terms of the transaction throughout. Working with Cavendish, we have secured a terrific deal for shareholders and one which will be transformational for the business." John Joseph, Chairman and founder, GET Group Plc
