Case Studies

For many businesses the best way to accelerate growth and development into new markets is through investment from a third party. When British perfume house Perfumer H was approached by a business partner with global reach it was a logical next step to enlist the support of Thrings’ Corporate team to secure the deal.

When Watson Petroleum Limited, the Wiltshire-based fuel distribution business, was acquired by World Fuel Services Corporation, one of the largest global fuel logistics companies in the world, their long term advisers Thrings were able to advise on every step of the way to secure a successful outcome.

When a leading commercial provider of electric submersible pumps had the opportunity to sell to further develop the business, the corporate team at Thrings were on hand to make sure the sale flowed nicely!
