What our clients say

I feel obliged to thank you for the truly excellent job you did for me and my fellow directors. The sale price you agreed was considerably higher than ever anticipated.

Having achieved a really good offer you could have taken the easy option and allowed subsequent negotiations to eat into the figure but you didn’t do that. The hours you spent on transatlantic phone calls late into the night are greatly appreciated. You certainly pulled out the stops and the result speaks for itself.

I would recommend you and your company to anyone.

Roger Broadley (Walter Broadley Group)

We would like to take this opportunity to thank Cooper Parry for the successful completion of the partial buyout of Datapath Limited.  Despite the complexity of our transaction, we found you to be committed to the process and at all times worked hard to deliver results.

The deal satisfied our objectives of crystallising value created in the business whilst retaining a significant stake in the future growth of the company alongside the new investors. 

The transaction process was complex but the team at Cooper Parry drove the transaction to completion allowing us to concentrate on running the business.

Sally Saunders and Roy Farmer were particularly strong, providing sound guidance and support.  We would certainly not hesitate to recommend you to others.

Steve De'ath (Datapath)

Of the companies I was introduced to, Cooper Parry impressed me with its pragmatic and down-to-earth approach. Once instructed, you set about the project with energy and enthusiasm, and a calm determination to achieve the best possible deal.

Cooper Parry provided an excellent service. As good advisers should, you gave advice and made recommendations, and allowed the principals to take the final decisions. It was a pleasure working with you; if we have another opportunity, we will not hesitate to do so again.

John R Dickson (Owen Pugh)

Now that the dust is beginning to settle, it would be very appropriate if we wrote to you to say how much we have valued your services and the highly professional manner in which you handled the take-over by Boots.

The outcome for our family was exceptionally successful and we are indebted to you for all the work which you completed for us all. We must say that we could not have achieved such a result without yourself and your colleagues.

David and Cicely Gale (Frosts Chemists)

John has at all times been absolutely magnificent ambassador for your company. He has worked tirelessly, including out of hours work, weekends etc, to successfully complete the transaction. It has been anything but an easy road and on many occasions we have come to what seemed like various dead ends, but John’s tenacity and perseverance has overcome the problems.

The trust and ability of John to deal with the incoming bank has also been a major key feature in the success of the transaction, and again John has worked hard and tirelessly in keeping the bank fully informed and on board at all times.

Roger A Cochrane, (Façade System Engineering)

Just wanted to drop you this short note for everything you and your team did in helping us to get this deal done – finally! As you well know, pulling off a merger can be a real pain in the backside, and this was no exception. Your support and diligence helped make the whole process tolerable.

I look forward to seeing you all soon and, once again, thank you for a fabulous performance last week.

Kevin Ingram, (THA Group)

I wanted to take a few moments to drop you a line to thank you and the team for the support and advice – it was second to none!

You were committed to helping the management team – and available at all hours - whilst being totally focused on getting the deal done in a viable way for both the buyer and seller.

The direction, support and ongoing professional advice you provided more than exceeded our expectations resulting in a deal far better than we imagined.

Simply stated, this deal could not have been done without you!

Lawrence Wright (Equilift)

Following the successful sale of Bondsword, Amber Composites and Technical Resin Bonders we would like to thank you for a job well done.

Despite the complexity of selling three companies to an International Consortium, you project managed all parties concerned in a tireless, organised and timely manner. Your drive and dedication ensured that there were no last minute hitches and enabled the deal to complete on time.

You were always available to provide guidance, information and support and we are please to have worked with you.

We would certainly not hesitate to recommend you to others and not just for the excellent breakfast meetings you provide!
