In FDC, we’ve found a company that allows us to be ourselves, to grow the business the way we want to be, but also they’re there to offer advice, sit at board meetings and discuss things with openly, so a really flexible investment partner.

Carl Perry and the team at FDC were easy to work with throughout the MBO process. Graham Mold and Clive Broadhurst have a wealth of experience in commercial deal structuring. Their flexible approach, support and teamwork enabled a smooth transition.

Working with FDC has been a refreshing change. Direct access to senior individuals has resulted in a seamless investment process. We were able to discuss the twists and turns that are common in any transaction, as we were confident of a considered, appropriate and deliverable response. As a result, we closed the transaction on time and with a structure that worked for all parties.
