Inn Collection Group bought back by Kings Park Capital

The Inn Collection Group has been acquired by The Harris Family Trusts, together with Kings Park Capital.

Northern operator The Inn Collection Group has been acquired by a new company backed by The Harris Family Trusts, together with Kings Park Capital. 

The deal, said to be worth more than £300m, will see the 31-site pubco continue trading as normal with its existing teams, as it continues to roll out strategic "buy and build" growth plans to expand its pubs-with-rooms-model across the north of England and north Wales. 

Having been bought by Alchemy Partners in 2018, the new deal takes Inn Collection Group back under Kings Park Capital ownership for a second time.

The Harris family were one of the founding families of The Bourne Leisure Group, which it held for over 45 years before selling a majority stake in 2021. At the time, the business, which comprises Butlin's, Warner Leisure Hotels and Haven, was valued at £3bn. 

“This is a hugely exciting new chapter for our entire team," says Sean Donkin, managing director of The Inn Collection Group. “I am absolutely delighted that The Harris Family Trusts believe in our product and performance and are investing in our future at such a dynamic time.

“We look forward to a long relationship with the Harris family and resuming our established association with Kings Park Capital.

“Our greatest thanks to the team at Alchemy for backing us over the past four years and enabling us to far exceed our projected growth plans.”
