ABC Nursery sold to St Bees Little Learners Nursery

ABC Nursery located in Egremont was sold to St Bees Little Learners Nursery in a deal facilitated by Redwoods Dowling Kerr.

ABC Nursery is an impressive, detached nursery that is registered for up to 110 children from birth to eight years old.

Although the setting closed due to Covid-19, the business was very successful and had great potential being in an up and coming area of Cumbria.

The new owner wishes to reopen the nursery as they were looking to expand their business portfolio.

Our client’s comments on the RDK sales process were: “Redwoods Dowling Kerr made the selling process simple and easy. Laura got straight onto what she needed to do. Since deciding it was the right time to sell due to the pandemic and having to close the setting, I was looking for someone experienced in the sector with a desire to develop a nursery for the community. The RDK service was very good and understandably, because of the pandemic it took a little bit of time to find the perfect buyer, but once an offer was accepted, it was complete within eight weeks. Upon completion, I was feeling mixed emotions while I can now relax a little, I was also sad due to owning the business for 12 years. I would definitely recommend RDK because they made the process super simple and were able to get the job done.”

The buyer confirmed: “We have had a good experience with Redwoods Dowling Kerr. The team are friendly and always there to answer phone calls or emails to resolve any queries. The process is quick as RDK were professional and efficient in completing the purchase.”

Childcare Broker Laura Ryan stated: “Extremely happy for the seller and buyer, both parties were super easy to communicate with, which made the process go through within 8 weeks once the offer had been accepted.

I wish everyone all the best in the future it has been an absolute pleasure.”
