CH&Co Group Announces Merger with Harbour & Jones
CIS Excellence Hospitality Educator of the Year Award sponsor, CH&Co Group, has announced a merger with Harbour & Jones, the London-based independent caterer specialising in education and business-and-industry contracts. Increasing the group’s turnover to £265m and its portfolio to 700 sites across the UK and Ireland, the move will bolster its workforce to more than 6,000 people.
CH&Co Group’s CEO, Bill Toner (pictured above middle), said: ‘Harbour & Jones and CH&Co Group are both dynamic businesses and in combining our assets, knowledge, skills and expertise we will increase our strength to compete across the board.
‘We’ve undertaken a number of mergers in recent years and have proven that being part of a larger company doesn’t dilute a business’s personality or personal touch. We are thrilled to have Harbour & Jones join the CH&Co Group family and we look forward to realising the opportunities this merger creates for the business, our clients and our teams.
Harbour & Jones’ co-founders, Patrick Harbour and Nathan Jones (pictured left and right), will continue as managing partners. Mr Harbour said: ‘We’ll continue to deliver the great food and service for which we have become known but behind the scenes we’ll be looking at how we can pool our creativity and strengthen the businesses within the newly expanded CH&Co family.’
