Benchmark International has Advised on the Sale of Manor Renewable Energy to a Consortium of Investors

Benchmark International is pleased to announce the transaction between Manor Renewable Energy and a consortium of investors led by Moulton Goodies Limited and Castle Mill Equity Partners Limited. The transaction also involved Manor Marine, a wholly owned subsidiary of Manor Renewable Energy.

Manor Renewable Energy was founded in 2013 and is the leading provider in offshore temporary power and engineering solutions to the wind farm industry. Manor Marine, which began trading in 1991, provides vessel construction and maintenance services.

The deal facilitated the exit of a founder shareholder and provides backing for the team to continue its high-growth plan. Going forward, the investors will support the existing management team with strategic and commercial expertise as the business seeks to broaden its offering by investing in its operations and maintenance division.

Paul Wilson, Managing Director of Benchmark International, and adviser to the vendors, said: “It was a pleasure working with Eric, Toby and John on this transaction and I am delighted that we have secured the right equity investor to take the business to the next level.”

Rob Asplin, co-founder and managing director at Castle Mill Equity Partners, said: “We’re clearly thrilled to now be a part of the Manor story. The experienced team at Manor are impressive and know their market and the business they’ve created better than anyone else. It’s a pleasure to now work with them and we can add our broad commercial experience, strategic support and our investment partners’ wealth of expertise and contacts to help continue the Manor success story.”

On behalf of everyone at Benchmark International, we would like to wish both parties every success for the future.
