Curtains For Yorkshire Firms

04/02/08

 Trio of local firms in furnishing buy-in deal

Harrogate-based Davidson Webber and Leed's Hammonds have worked on an acquisition for a leading London home furnishings retailer.
The Harrogate firm acted for Dan Gartland, MD of Loadstone Ltd, in a management buy-in of curtain accessories business Fabricant – whose clients include Buckingham Palace – for an undisclosed sum.
The vendors, Andrew Fuller and Stephen Watts, were represented by Hammonds and Jeremy Oliver of Garbutt & Elliott Accountants in York.
Neil Large, corporate partner at Davidson Webber, commented: “Fabricant is a genuine success story of a company that has retained its historic manufacturing and design processes in Yorkshire and has remained focused on growth.”
