Meridian was delighted to advise the shareholders and management team on the Management Buy-Out of Project Cedar.

Cedar is a long-established, Hampshire based business with a strong reputation in the STEM sector.

Meridian acted as lead advisor to the business, working alongside Jeremy Over at Moore Barlow, Laura Baker at HSBC, and Gemma Hedges at HWB to create a tailor-made structure and £5m funding solution to facilitate the buyout.

The transaction marks an exciting new chapter for the company, empowering its leadership team to drive future growth and innovation.

We are proud to have supported the team through this milestone and wish them every success in the next phase of their journey.
