Derbyshire contract cleaning firm sold to Birmingham group

A Derbyshire-based contract cleaning company has been sold to Birmingham’s Hygiene Group.

Lindsay Phillips Property Care (LPPC), headquartered in Belper, was set up in 2012 by husband and wife team, Lindsay and Emma Phillips.

LPPC was advised on the sale by Mark Tuckwell, Shaf Bheda and Chris Matthews of Magma Corporate Finance, acting as lead advisor, with supporting tax advice provided by Magma’s Jon Kicks. Freya Summers at Wright Hassall Solicitors led the legal advisory team.

Emma Philips said: “We are excited about joining a prominent organisation, with a like-minded approach, like Hygiene Group and excited about the positive impact this will have for our staff and customers. The transition has been a really emotional one for us, as we have built the business with heart and soul for such a long time. Magma’s support has been absolutely spot on throughout.”

Matthews added: “It’s been a pleasure supporting Lindsay, Emma and the team and we look forward to hearing of their continued success within the Hygiene Group family.”
