Case Studies

Ainscough Crane Hire Limited

Ainscough Crane Hire is the largest lifting services company in the UK. The shareholders wished to sell the company whilst retaining the various properties and depots as assets in order to provide revenue after the sale of the business. Fairhurst oversaw the demerger of the trading and investment property interests which resulted in the properties being removed from the company with no tax charge, including subsequent disposal of shareholder trading interests for consideration exceeding £250m. Both the vendors and company itself continue to utilise Fairhurst services.
