Stadia Sports International Ltd.
Stadia Sports International Ltd., market leading supplier of sports equipment to institutions, schools and colleges, builders and contractors in the UK approached BCMS Corporate to administer the sale of their 27 year old company. Original founders John Hoffman and Soames Springthorpe agreed that Stadia Sports was approaching a growth stage that would be best for an acquirer with a more managerial approach as opposed to their entrepreneurial mentality.
BCMS Corporate successfully approached 265 strategic buyers, of which 40 expressed additional interest in Stadia's potential which advanced into nine meetings with John and Soames. Of the two final offers, Stadia felt Broxap Ltd. was the best strategic fit. Broxap designs, manufactures, and installs covered structures for railway stations, airports and hospitals. They aspire to establish their products in every school throughout the UK. Stadia could contribute to this goal with their strong market position is this niche.
