Rocal Group MBO

Rocal Group was acquired by the existing management team from the previous owners James and Sandra Longley on March 2.

The management team that acquired the group comprises managing director Stephen Nadin, group accountant Alison Jenkin, operations director Garry Brewin, and production director Kevin Ashe.

This change in ownership will see a continuation of the group’s business strategy and its sustained investment programme, the company said. This is to support further growth, with objectives including a commitment towards product innovation and exemplary customer care.

Stephen Nadin, managing director of Rocal Group, said: “We are genuinely elated with the deal, which will allow us to continue with our long-term business plan. This will enable continued investment across all aspects for the group’s business, including Endurance Doors and, importantly, offers greater long-term stability for employees, customers and business partners.’

There are three distinct parts to Rocal Group, including: Endurance Doors, which supplies premium, solid timber core composite doors to more than 1,000 installers across the UK; Rocal Extrusions, which manufactures plastic extrusions, decorative wrapping and secondary operations that also support the Endurance Doors product proposition; and Rocal Door Panels, which manufactures PVCU door panels under the brand names Aboda and Impressions.

The transaction was completed on March 2, 2021 and led by the management team with financial guidance from Forrester Boyd, legal advice from Bridge McFarland and financial support from Aldermore Bank.
