Yorkshire business acquires call handling and vehicle recovery specialist
Huddersfield-based FMG has acquired GRG Public Resources Limited (GRG), which provides call handling for vehicle removal and emergency boarding of premises for the blue-light industry.
FMG is a fleet incident management and recovery firm, and is a wholly owned subsidiary of Redde Northgate plc.
It says the deal gives it a platform to expand and evolve its existing services into the blue-light arena.
The arrival of Stafford-based GRG, which handles police and fire services contracts, will enhance the breadth and customer proposition of FMG, bringing a further depth of knowledge and expertise through the addition of GRG’s own operatives and skilled personnel.
Claire Owens, FMG managing director, said: “We continue to work hard to position FMG at the forefront of the industries in which we operate; providing first-class sustainable solutions for our clients and customers.
“Completing the acquisition of GRG places us as a real front-runner in this market as our customers’ needs evolve.
“The acquisition ensures we remain robust for the long-term, with the addition of Vehicle Recovery Operators, the continued ability for fast and complete geographic coverage, the harnessing of first-class proprietary systems and importantly, the investment in skilled and experienced personnel to ensure our customers remain delighted with efficiency and knowledge-led solutions.
“I’d like to welcome the GRG team to FMG and the wider Redde Northgate family, and look forward to enhancing this important area of the business.”
