Stevens & Bolton’s corporate team has advised Merino Capital on its acquisition of Premier Bikes and Triumph Oxford, which specialise in the sale of motorcycles. Merino Capital is an active investor in UK businesses with a portfolio of 11 businesses. Premier Bikes are the leading KTM and Triumph dealer in Oxfordshire and surrounding counties, and have a strong reputation for choice and customer service.

The business has built an excellent reputation and we look forward to building on this. We would like to thank all the team at Stevens & Bolton for their support on this transaction.”
