Sovereign's Kindertons buys Plantec

Plantec will remain independent and operate as a subsidiary of Kindertons. The bolt-on is expected to extend Kindertons' offering in the motorcycle market and to expand the group's network thanks to the Plantec distribution centre in the Midlands.

Debt to support the bolt-on was provided by Chenavari Investment Managers.

Sovereign backed Kindertons in October 2013, with debt provided by Chenavari. Further bolt-ons are planned for the company.
