Despite the continued gloom in the Eurozone, Bishopsgate was pleased to announce the completion of two deals in June, the MBO of Education Personnel Management (“EPM”) and the disposal of Kingston Foods to Cranswick plc, both for undisclosed sums.

EPM provides personnel and consultancy services to over 700 schools across the UK and the funding for the transaction was provided by RBS.

The disposal of Kingston Foods represents Bishopsgate’s third deal with Cranswick plc and takes them into the fast growing food service and restaurant sector.  Well done to Tom Spencer who was lead adviser on both transactions.
