We negotiated the exit of husband-and-wife eye care specialists within just one month… Our client, C.A Raison Optica Limited, is a family run, full-service optician located in the heart of Barnsley town centre, established in 1993. Founders Mr & Mrs Raison made the decision to sell their company after 30 successful years in the trade – to facilitate their retirements – having built it from the ground up to become a very reputable business. Leanne Boulding, Knightsbridge Operations Director, describes Raison Optica as a “long standing, independent optician that services private and NHS customers. “It possesses a well experienced team of staff and boasts an excellent town centre location. We tabled two offers for the Raisons to choose from. “A good relationship was built between all parties and a deal was agreed within a month of going live to market, thanks to being able to draw on an existing operator within the Knightsbridge buyer pool.” Faheem Sarfraz of MFS Ophthalmic Services Ltd acquired Raison Optica to serve as a bolt-on to his existing practice in Huddersfield.
