Overview

  • Viking Rentals is a portable toilet and shower-block hire business servicing the construction and major-events industries, working with thousands of builders and events nationally
  • Miles was engaged to advise the shareholders of Viking Rentals on the divestment of their interests
  • The business was sold to an investment group led by Bayfront Capital Management, with the management team retained, providing Blue Sky and its co-shareholders a realisation of their investment

Industry Context

Equipment and site-services hire businesses appeal to acquirers for their recurring, contract-backed revenues and exposure to construction and events activity. The buyer was seeking to continue to grow the business through its own relationships in the sector.
