While PTSG has secured year-on-year growth each year since it began trading in
2007, its current plan of growth was boosted in 2019, when Macquarie’s Principal
Finance business (Macquarie) acquired the Group at a value of over £300 million.
Two years later, in 2021, Warburg Pincus invested more than £600m alongside
Macquarie, supporting unprecedented growth potential for the company.
Nikhil Varty, Chief Executive Officer of PTSG, said: “Last year, we added Flame
Control in the Netherlands (Fire Safety) and Whites (Electrical) to our portfolio as
we continue to focus on new opportunities.
“2024 also saw PTSG significant growth, with a proportional uplift in the number
of customers the company now serves. Going into 2025, we are making
significant investments in a number of areas, including sustainable fuel
technologies within our fleet, and new technology in areas such as customer
relationship management and data warehousing.
“The four key new appointments to our leadership team will play a crucial role in
maximising these investments. 2025 will be a year to watch PTSG as we continue
to deliver our ambitious growth plan.”
