June 1, 2018

Birketts, the top 100 law firm based in the East of England, has advised the shareholders of Frimstone Ltd on its sale to Mick George Ltd. The financial value of the deal was undisclosed.

Frimstone, a family owned business based in Downham Market, operates from 10 premises and has over 70 years’ experience in mineral extraction, recycling and restoration projects in the East Anglia region.

Mick George, which has its headquarters in Huntingdon, is best known for its work in building services and skip hire and has grown to become one of the leading suppliers to the construction industry in the heart of East Anglia and East Midlands.

Mark Davenport, CEO of Frimstone Ltd, commented: “The Birketts team were easy to get hold of and easy to deal with. It was a pleasure to be advised by lawyers who understood our requirements, were commercially-minded and proactive.”

James Allen, Corporate Partner at Birketts, who led the transaction, with assistance being provided by Corinne Spencer, added: “We are delighted to have helped to deliver a successful outcome for the shareholders of Frimstone”.
