MARSHALL Leasing is celebrating after parent Marshall Motor Holdings buys Ridgeway group to become the UK’s seventh largest motor group.
The purchase of Ridgeway Garages (Newbury) Limited (Ridgeway) is by far the largest acquisition the group has made to date – a successful multi-franchise dealer group operating across the southern home-counties, Wiltshire and Dorset representing 12 brands through 30 franchise dealerships with 1,333 employees.
In addition, Ridgeway operates five own-branded used car outlets, two trade parts specialists and two standalone body shops alongside a large group pre-delivery inspection centre.
The acquisition follows Marshall Group’s acquisition last year of SG Smith.
Marshall Leasing specialises in vehicle management and finance solutions. The company delivers tailor-made packages centred around cornerstone products such as contract hire, fleet management and health & safety services.
