This acquisition is incredibly exciting, bringing together two very successful businesses. We’re looking forward to welcoming the management and field teams and driving the business forward in the coming weeks and months. Throughout our discussions it’s been clear both parties wanted to achieve the same end goal and will be working closely to ensure a smooth transition. All staff will be part of the transition process and we look forward to continuing to supply the same great service to Dee Set’s customers and our own. The benefits for both staff and customers are significant as it allows us to offer wider opportunities to our existing and new teams and continue to improve service levels across the wider customer base. This deal is in line with our strategic plan and gives us a great platform for further growth and expansion of our service offering.

We are delighted to have reached an agreement with Bluestones that will give our many dedicated colleagues the opportunity to work within a business as passionate as they are about the services that our store development division delivers. We are confident Bluestones ambitions match our own, as the Dee Set business continues to grow and flourish in other areas.
This deal cements Bluestones One’s position in the market place with increased capacity to supply employment opportunities and support a large retail customer base.
