Fox Group - Latest Acquisition

By Fox Brothers Group Ltd

11 May 2022

May 11th, 2022 – Fox Group have acquired the Blackpool based Woods Waste Ltd, the latest addition to their portfolio of companies.

Paul Fox of Fox Group, commented, “We have a very strong longstanding relationship with Woods Waste and them becoming part of our Group makes perfect sense. They are a successful family run business, employing great people. It allows us to build on our already strong Blackpool presence and their scope of services fits perfectly with us.”

Woods Waste specialise in inert waste disposal, recycling, soil supplies and aggregates.

In recent months the Fox Group has made several strategic moves to deliver its strategy of expanding its scope and scale with the most recent acquisition, Cotswold Roller Hire Limited (CRH), giving the Fox Group a nationwide footprint for its operations. 2020 was a key year for the group, with the acquisition of Hurt Plant Hire and CMP, with 2021 welcoming JJ O’Grady Civils. 2022 has now seen the acquisitions of Blackledge Plant Hire, CRH and Woods Waste.

Throughout the deal, Hill Dickinson advised the Fox Group.
