Precision Engineering Specialist

Reference: M001657

Mergers are actively seeking a Precision Engineering Specialist business on behalf of a UK-based Trade Buyer with Private Equity Support. The acquirer is a well-established provider of precision machining services with a strong customer base across the oil & gas, aerospace & defence, rail, and food sectors. Backed by experienced owners with a proven track record in international acquisitions, they possess the financial resources, operational expertise, and strategic commitment to support the successful growth of the acquired company.

Industry Focus:

The company is actively seeking to acquire precision engineering generalists. The focus is on businesses offering a broad range of precision machining capabilities rather than those tied to a single sector. Companies with expertise across multiple industries and a reputation for delivering high-quality, technically complex engineering solutions will be of particular interest.

Target Market:

The acquirer has no specific requirement for sector specialisation and ideally would prefer businesses not exclusively focused on oil & gas. Companies with diverse client portfolios across a range of industries are particularly attractive. The ability to service complex projects, adapt to varied customer needs, and maintain long-standing client relationships will be advantageous.

Financial Performance:

They are seeking companies with an annual turnover in the region of £8 million to £10 million. While financial strength and resilience are important, the acquirer is open to considering more complex acquisitions, including those requiring new management structures, resolution of shareholder issues, or operational improvements.

Geographic Location:

The focus is on companies headquartered and operating in the UK. Businesses with established regional or national footprints, strong local supply chains, and opportunities for integration with the acquirer’s existing operations will be given particular consideration.

If you're considering selling, we’d love to explore how we can work together for mutual benefit.

The Next Steps
