Paul Scullion
Burness Paull acted as lead UK legal advisers to K-Bro Linen Systems on its £107.2 million acquisition of Star Mayan.
K-Bro, an international owner and operator of laundry and linen processing facilities already has a strong UK presence through its Fishers and Shortridge businesses, and the acquisition of Star Mayan and its three UK-based operating businesses creates a top three national platform in the market.
Head of corporate finance Paul Scullion, who led the Burness Paull deal team, said: “It was my absolute privilege to have advised K-Bro Linen Systems on this historic and transformative acquisition.
“Huge congratulations to all involved. We were part of K-Bro’s entry into the UK market back in 2017 through the acquisition of Fishers, and it is fantastic to see the business continue to grow their national scale and service coverage.”
