Fisher Holdings (United Kingdom) - Nov 2007

The divestment of Fishers generated a return of 2.9x on CBPE’s original investment and an IRR of 37% over its three-and-a-half year holding period. During the investment period, Fishers has grown profits considerably and increased its staff numbers from 600 to 700. It has also successfully expanded its presence into the North East of England. CBPE backed the £23m management buyout of Fishers from the Fishers family in 2004 (19 April 2004, page 20). CBPE invested £9m in the deal which was supported by debt provided by Bank of Scotland.
