Corporate law firm Hawkins Hatton has helped the owner of
Strykers Tenpin Bowling Centre in Wolverhampton strike a deal for
the sale of the business.
The centre in Shaw Road, Bushbury has been acquired by the
nationwide tenpin bowling operator Garland Leisure for an
undisclosed sum.
Dudley based Hawkins Hatton acted for the former owner of
Strykers Kulwant Samra, advising on the sale of the goodwill and
assets. Garland Leisure is to operate from the premises which also
features a bar, restaurant, function facilities, childrens play
area and amusement arcade.
Garland Leisure, the UK's third largest tenpin bowling operator,
now runs 19 sites across the country and the acquisition of the
24-lane Strykers facility is the latest in the company's fast
growing empire.
Colin Rodrigues, corporate partner at Hawkins Hatton, said: "We
were delighted to play a lead role in the sale of the business
which brings a number of benefits for the parties involved. Our
client has been able to realise the value of his investment in
growing Strykers over recent years, whilst for Garland Leisure the
acquisition is an excellent strategic fit with its plans to expand
the tenpin bowling business."
"Sometimes deals can go down a blind alley, but this one was a
perfect strike!"
