“I had worked successfully with Bamburgh Capital for several years. When the time came to seek a buyer for Advante, Bamburgh Capital acted quickly and effectively despite the Covid pandemic, which complicated the process substantially. Bamburgh Capital were highly responsive throughout, sensitive to the objectives and wider concerns of the management team and owners, and throughout were highly professional . In conclusion the sale realised probably more than was originally anticipated and was all managed to programme.”
