Dunedin - Dunedin does it again

Dunedin, the BVCA Private Equity House of the Year has again made a significant profit on its original investment following the sale of Buildspan, one of the UK’s leading distributor’s of construction products, to SIG Plc for an undisclosed price. Last week, Dunedin doubled its money on the sale of Zenith Vehicle Contracts.
Buildspan has developed a reputation as the most reliable national supplier of quality concrete, brickwork and precast accessories, specialising in a next day delivery service to the contractor on site allowing them to meet the practical everyday demands of the construction industry.
Alasdair Miller, director of Dunedin, commented: “Over the last four years, we have worked alongside the Buildspan management team to drive the company’s growth and development. Sales have increased by over 60 per cent with 2 new depots having been opened, providing the group with national distribution capability. The sale to SIG is a natural fit and will provide additional opportunities for the company’s continued development.”
Dunedin’s exit has meant that it has realised a significant uplift on its original investment.
John Turner, CEO of Buildspan said: “Dunedin has been a responsive and valuable partner to us and has continually offered the highest level of service. They have worked with us closely in our strategy to develop the profile and service capability of the business’’
Buildspan has three main operations, one at Ash Vale covering the South of England and one at Dronfield covering the Midlands and the North and a new depot near Canary Wharf which is expected to benefit from increased construction activity arising from the nearby Olympic site and regeneration of the Thames gateway.
Buildspan remains committed to providing the highest levels of customer service possible. The company aims to become the most experienced, reliable and responsive independent supplier of quality concrete and brickwork accessories, which every customer operating in England and Wales would prefer to use as their supplier.
Dunedin doubled the size of its business in 2006 by raising a £250 million fund, increasing its investor base and expanding its team in Edinburgh and London. It made some exciting new investments in Capula, etc.venues and WFEL and successfully realised investments in Zenith, Letts Filofax, Caledonian Building Systems, Celtic Inns, Home & Legacy, Davenham and Portman Travel. The new fund gives Dunedin the firepower to invest up to £50 million of equity in a deal allowing it to focus on buyouts of up to £75 million enterprise value and then to pursue buy and build or roll-out opportunities.
