What the deal participants said

“I was guided through the whole process by the expert advice provided by Corbett Keeling and RM2. That way I was provided with a "One Stop Shop" that could answer any questions I had and manage the process from inception to completion. I cannot recommend the process and advice highly enough and without it would not have succeeded in a sale that allowed everyone to benefit.”

John Murphy, Arbuckles

“For Arbuckles an EOT transaction was the best fit for the owners who wanted to be able to exit the business and reward their staff. It was a great opportunity to work alongside RM2 who specialise in EOT’s, together with their expertise and Corbett Keeling’s, we were able to deliver a great outcome for Arbuckles.”

Harry Knight, Director at Corbett Keeling

“It was a privilege to work with John, Maxine and the Arbuckles team on their transition to an EOT. This was a very smooth transaction, which was helped by Corbett Keeling’s support and advice. Arbuckles is a fantastic business, which we are sure will go from strength to strength under employee ownership.”
