Translink Corporate Finance in the United Kingdom is pleased to announce that it acted as the lead advisor to the Shareholders of the National Floorcoverings Group (NFG), a company specialising in the manufacture of textile floor coverings and sports surfaces, on the sale to Nimbus, a Pan European investor that specialises in buy outs, carve outs and turnaround situations.
NFG consists of four market facing divisions Heckmondwike, Paragon, Playrite and Mat.Works, and has been under family ownership for over 60 years. In that time NFG has dominated the educational sector with its flagship fibre-bonded product Supacord whilst continually developing and introducing new product lines to appeal to wider commercial offices and sports organisations.
The acquisition by Nimbus, the Pan European investor with offices in Munich, Zeist and Leeds represents the first UK acquisition from its new Fund V.
Andy Shepherd, Advisor at Translink, commented, “Our team worked tirelessly on this project to ensure that we delivered an exceptional result to the Shareholders. The transaction required a specialist buyer, capable of taking on a complex asset that is spread across two manufacturing locations. We believe that Nimbus is the perfect fit for NFG and will undoubtedly assist in guiding them through the next stage of their journey.”
