Kingdom Services Group completes Colvin Cleaning Group acquisition
Kingdom Services Group has acquired The Colvin Cleaning Group - the Sussex based professional cleaning services provider to the private and public sector.
Colvin Cleaning Group business owner Gerald Colvin (pictured right) will remain as a consultant to support the full integration of the Colvin business, with his existing team all being retained.
It will be business as usual for the Colvin customers and colleagues - but with the benefits of Kingdom providing even greater capabilities, specialist knowledge, opportunities and added value that come from being part of a 7000+ colleague and £200m turnover organisation operating across a UK-wide office network.
"I am delighted with the acquisition and the integration of our two businesses," says Gerald Colvin. "Kingdom Service Group, like The Colvin Group, has been established for over 30 years with an excellent reputation in our industry. Kingdom's nationwide coverage and portfolio of services will provide wider service support opportunities to our clients."
Terry Barton (pictured left), CEO of Kingdom Services Group, says: "2022 was always going to be a busy year for Kingdom. We have very exciting growth plans for all the companies within the Group. Kingdom remains a family-owned business with family values and when I was introduced to Gerald there was an immediate culture match. I personally welcome the Colvin team into the Kingdom Group.
"Colvin provide a best-in-class local cleaning service. The acquisition will further strengthen our ability to truly deliver a national and local best-in-class cleaning service. We can support the existing delivery with Group-wide synergies and added value."
Kingdom Services Group has a UK-wide network of 18 offices including Glasgow, Birmingham, London and Belfast with its National Support and Command Centre based at Newton-le-Willows. Kingdom also operates in India.
