Advising Altrad Group on their acquisition of Star Events Group

Our Corporate & Finance team has advised Altrad Beaver 84, a subsidiary of the Altrad Group, on becoming the major shareholder in the Star Events Group.

The Altrad Group, which is an international, multi-million-pound turnover business based in Montpellier, France, already manages a number of products in the events sector.

This major shareholder acquisition is part of its growth strategy in the competitive events sector.

Star Events Group is a leading scaffolding and seating provider, supplying to global events such as The Royal Windsor Horse Show, V Festival and Download Festival.

This is the sixth acquisition by Altrad in recent years, as they continue to consolidate their market share in the UK scaffolding industry.

Our Corporate & Finance team commented:

“This multi-million-pound shareholder acquisition is the perfect fit for both Altrad Beaver 84 and Star Events Group. For some time Star had been aware of the need for substantial investment to ensure their industry-leading status and are a great compliment to Altrad Beavers 84’s own portfolio in the events sector, fitting perfectly with their growth plans.”
