FMG, the incident management and roadside services specialist, and a wholly owned subsidiary of Redde Northgate plc, has acquired GRG Public Resources Limited, a specialist in the provision of 24 hour, year round call handling for vehicle removal and emergency boarding of premises for the blue-light industry.
The acquisition provides a platform for FMG to expand and evolve existing services into the blue-light arena, with GRG being synonymous with the effective and efficient handling of police and fire services contracts. GRG will enhance the breadth and customer proposition of the Huddersfield-based business, operating in complementary market conditions and bringing a further depth of knowledge and expertise through the addition of GRG operatives and skilled personnel.
Commenting on the acquisition, Claire Owens, FMG Managing Director, said: “We continue to work hard to position FMG at the forefront of the industries in which we operate; providing first-class sustainable solutions for our clients and customers. We are delighted to complete the acquisition of GRG, placing us as a real front-runner in this market as our customers’ needs evolve.
“The acquisition ensures we remain robust for the long-term, with the addition of VRO’s, the continued ability for fast and complete geographic coverage, the harnessing of first-class proprietary systems and importantly, the investment in skilled and experienced personnel to ensure our customers remain delighted with efficiency and knowledge-led solutions. I’d like to welcome the GRG team to FMG and the wider Redde Northgate family, and look forward to enhancing this important area of the business.”
