We have seen Victorian Sliders go from strength to strength and we are confident that with the additional £4 million of BGF investment, combined with the new leadership team’s experience and expertise, the business’s impressive growth trajectory will continue to gather further momentum.

The Lewis Silkin team was led by corporate partner, Geraint Tilsley with support from Elizabeth Cotton.

Commenting on the deal, Geraint Tilsley said:
