Perfect alignment between UK’s largest independent home services company and global franchisor
Deal Flash
Neighborly Inc. (Neighborly), the world’s largest franchisor of home service brands, has acquired Pimlico Plumbers (Pimlico), a leading independent emergency repair assistance provider to both the residential and commercial sectors in London.
Founded in 1979, Pimlico provides a suite of end-to-end services ranging from its core offerings of heating and plumbing to its ancillary services of electrics, carpentry, jetting, roofing, appliance repairs and air-con installation.
I would like to thank everyone involved in the process that has concluded with us choosing Neighborly as our partner going forward, especially Oaklins Cavendish and our CFO Mike Bergin, without whom this would not have happened.SCOTT MULLINS, CEO, PIMLICO PLUMBERS, UK
