Edwin Coe is delighted to have assisted Options Greathire Limited, an European leader of rental equipment for dinners, weddings and events, in expanding its UK offering by acquiring Whitehouse Event Crockery Limited, a leading supplier of glassware and crockery for events and private hire based in the Northwest.
Our M&A team was headed up by Alexandre Terrasse (Partner) and Michelle Ansah (Associate). Alexandre Terrasse commented “I am pleased to have advised Options Greathire on the successful completion of this transaction. I wish them every success in their plans to grow their business in the UK.”
