Private investor acquires Hull roofing specialist

Dave Jessop Ltd, a roofing specialist based in Hull, has been acquired by a private investor.

Operating for over 30 years as a family-run business, Dave Jessop has vast experience in the industrial, domestic and agricultural markets.

Manufacturing and supplying an extensive range of roofing solutions, key products include bespoke sheeting, guttering and flashings.

Luke Rae, the KBS Corporate deal executive who managed the sale, said: “Dave Jessop has continued to grow since its inception, benefitting from decades of experience and great customer feedback.

“The founders, Dave and Davena Jessop, felt that now was the right time to explore a business sale as they looked towards their retirement.”

The successful offer came from Pierce and Geddes Investments, led by David Pierce. The acquisition of Dave Jessop will allow the new owner to diversify an existing investment portfolio.

Luke added: “I am confident that David Pierce will maintain the success of the business moving forward, working alongside the existing workforce to expand further.”

During the sale, Dave Jessop was supported by Qachina McKeefery, KBS Corporate Document Writer, and Guvvy Sandhu of Mackrell Solicitors.
