Ashby de-la-Zouch firm Fire Protection Group (FPG) has been sold to Scutum International for an undisclosed amount.

FPG is a provider of fire and security solutions. The firm was founded in 1989 by Colin Mitchell, with Jim Williamson joining in 2006 to lead FPG’s security solutions offering.

In recent years, the business has added specialist high hazard services and fire risk assessments to provide full turnkey solutions to its blue-chip customer base.

In 2016 FPG was recognised as one of the fastest growing businesses in the sector.

RSM’s M&A and private equity team advised FPG.

Ewan Grant, partner and head of corporate finance for Scotland at RSM, said: “The sale to Scutum International represents the next stage of growth in FPG’s history as the combined business seeks to expand its footprint and deliver industry leading solutions to its customers both in the UK and international marketplace.”
