Construction Supplies Hardware Ltd and Ironmongery Services Ltd, referred to as CSH Group, an established distributor of products for the construction and timber-buildings industry, have been acquired by UK-based investment firm Grow Logical Ltd.

The sale of the group, which has demonstrated strong profits over its 45-year history, is expected to enable it to capitalise on the opportunities of being part of a larger company group and build upon the growth achieved in recent years. CSH operates from premises in Burton upon Trent, Staffordshire.

Kevin Banton, Managing Director of CSH Group, said: “I have no doubt Construction Supplies Hardware and Ironmongery Services will flourish as part of the Grow Logical family of companies.

“It was particularly important to me that my employees, many of whom have given the company many years of loyal service, would be protected in the change in ownership. I am proud of our exceptionally high staff retention, which is underpinned by a strong culture of collaboration and respect, and I am very happy to say all the staff have opted to remain in their positions.”

Shaun White, Head of Acquisitions at Grow Logical Holdings Ltd, added: “We are delighted to welcome CSH Group into the Grow Logical portfolio. Kevin and his team have built a robust and respected business that perfectly aligns with our Project Lion mission - to protect, modernise, and grow legacy British businesses.

"This acquisition strengthens our position in the construction and hardware distribution sector, and we’re excited to build on the company’s strong foundation for future growth.”
