Huws Gray, a building materials merchant, backed by Inflexion Private Equity, has acquired Ridgeons, building materials distributor. “The acquisition of Ridgeons represents a real milestone for our company as we become the largest independent builders’ merchants in the UK. Ridgeons is an excellent business with a genuine leadership position in its region and is a perfect addition to Huws Gray’s growing footprint. We were struck not only by the strength of the company, but also by the considerable similarities between our cultures and management style.” said Terry Owen, Huws Gray CEO
