Field and Lawn has announced the business’ acquisition by GL events UK, in a move which sees the global event infrastructure provider assume 100% ownership. The acquisition was signed last week at Field and Lawn’s Broxburn offices, near Edinburgh with key directors from both GL events and Field and Lawn present at the signing.
Field and Lawn’s Managing Director, Nick Radcliffe confirms that the acquisition is a wholly positive move and one which will open up exciting future potential across all four of its operational units. “Joining the GL events Group is a hugely positive step for Field and Lawn, and we are enthusiastically embracing the opportunity to develop the business with the support and experience of the GL events team. The strength and stability of the GL events group globally, and the security that this backing affords, is a very positive thing for our current client base and our team and we can’t wait to get started.”
Scott Jameson, CEO for GL events UK added, “We are excited to welcome Field and Lawn into the GL events Group and look forward to working with Nick Radcliffe and his team to take the business from strength to strength. While temporary structures, both for events and the industrial market, are very familiar territory for GL events, we are pleased to further diversify and grow our UK offering through placemaking and festive lighting divisions, building on what is already an extremely solid business.”
The acquisition will see Field and Lawn continue to operate as a separate business and brand supported by the GL events senior management team.
