GS Verde Group has advised on the successful sale of Hawksdrift, a well-established, Mid-Wales-based aviation control business, in a trade sale to an international acquirer.
The company, which has built a strong reputation for delivering highly specialised bird control and mitigation solutions, has long served a broad portfolio of commercial and public sector clients. Its work is closely aligned with the facilities management and pest control industries, both of which are experiencing increased demand for integrated, compliant, and responsive environmental support services.
The sale will see the business join a larger, multi-national group, creating an exciting future for the business, its staff and its clients.
