BGF is one of the largest and most experienced growth capital investors operating across the UK and Ireland.
Business Growth Fund has backed 3sun Group with a £10m injection to accelerate expansion across domestic and international markets.
"Securing this £10m investment is an enormous achievement for us. The financial support from BGF is testament to the dedication of the entire 3sun Group team and the notable work we are already doing in the industry."
BGF provides £7m in growth capital for a minority stake in the network support provider.
"The mobile telecoms market is currently experiencing a period of unprecedented activity driven by a combination of the introduction of 4g services and the consolidation of the operators’ radio networks as they strive to improve customer experience through both coverage and quality of service whilst controlling and minimising their future operating expenditure."
BGF has acquired a minority stake and a board seat in the precision component manufacturer.
"BGF has invested in a number of exciting manufacturing businesses to date and it is fantastic to be able to welcome VTL into this group. Employing over 300 skilled staff in the UK alone, VTL is a prime example of a Yorkshire manufacturing firm with its heart in the UK and operations across the globe."
BGF has backed the low-cost gym chain with a £5m investment to support its expansion across the UK.
"BGF’s funding will give us the financial and operational facilities to continue our expansion at a key time for the market and we look forward to working with Richard and the team over the coming years."
BGF backed the retail print supplier with growth capital to expand its technological capabilities.
"I think that many people would look at the physical printing business with some trepidation given how much of the market is moving online. What impressed us with Chris, Mike and the wider team at York Mailing was their ability to build a profitable and growing company by targeting a niche area within the sector that is in demand and expanding rapidly. Consistently investing in the latest innovative printing technology and acquiring underperforming assets and turning them round has enabled the management team to secure a market leading position. It’s a great example of a proven and dynamic management team with a clear plan to grow their business."
