"This is an exciting time for the Company and we have ambitious growth and development plans. YFM has been supportive and straightforward through the buyout process and are an ideal partner for us as we grow." John Curwen, Managing Director
Harvey Jones is a long established business with a strong reputation for the quality of its kitchens. The business manufactures most of the kitchens and furniture in its own UK joinery and sells through its chain of retail showrooms in London and provincial towns.
We supported the management team in their £7m MBO from a private owner. Since our investment the team has improved standards across the business, invested in the brand and rolled out a number of new showrooms, despite the difficult economic environment. Further showroom openings are in the pipeline.
Paul Cannings, Director commented "This was an opportunity to buy into a quality business with an established management team. The business has an excellent integrated retail model and the management team have a clear strategy to develop the business. We look forward to sharing in their success."
