Comment from Vestum's CEO Simon Göthberg:
We are today pleased to announce two excellent add-on acquisitions to Vestum's largest company, Pump Supplies. Both PJT and CCL have had commercial relationships with Pump Supplies for over 10 years and we are now further strengthening our capabilities in monitoring & control technology as well as pumping installation, service and engineering. By bringing the production of control panels in-house, we are boosting capacity, reducing lead times, unlocking new customer segments and reducing reliance on external providers. Both companies are located close to Pump Supplies' headquarters in Gloucester and have the UK water utilities as their primary end markets. Overall, we are positioned for accelerated growth in a structurally growing market.

Grant Thornton has acted as financial advisor and Fieldfisher as well as Birketts have acted as legal advisors to Pump Supplies in connection to the acquisitions.
