M J Gowling a leading regional consolidator of wholesale and retail carpet and flooring businesses has acquired Laser Flooring Supplies.

Laser a long established wholesaler based in Milton Keynes has been acquired for an undisclosed sum. Barry Parsons, the proprietor of Hyde House, is keen to work with banks and accountants in the area in order to assist businesses owners of all sizes plan for and achieve successful exit from their businesses.

Barry says ‘One of the pleasing things that has happened following recent successful business sales is that the accountants working on both sides have been keen to refer further clients to Hyde House.

There appears to be a growing understanding that there are skill sets other than that of accountancy and law that are key to bringing the buyer and seller all the way through to completion.

It is imperative that owners seek advice on selling their business from someone who has created, acquired, managed and sold businesses in order to benefit from those experiences’.
