Founded in 2002, Simpson Travel is a UK-based, multi-award-winning luxury travel business specialising in authentic holiday experiences to idyllic European destinations.
The Company’s reputation is built upon industry leading levels of service, reflected in its five-star reviews and Trustpilot scores. As a result, it secures exceptional brand loyalty and its carefully curated portfolio of handpicked villas and outstanding boutique hotels entices customers year after year.
The Business operates in the most resilient market segment and is led by an impressive management team who cleverly negotiated the pandemic and went on to strengthen company performance.
The company received investment from Risk Capital in March 2024 and BDO Debt Advisory successfully advised the company in raising an innovative package of term and revolving debt to support the investment.
The finance package will provide management with flexibility as they grow their business with the support of Risk Capital.
“BDO Debt Advisory played a key role in helping us navigate a transaction set against a tight timeline, in a regulated industry – the value add was clear. Their debt staple meant we could place strong reliance on the deliverability of the offers from lenders. The application of their specialist market knowledge, combined with their problem-solving approach, enabled them to negotiate a tailored and flexible structure, that should facilitate the delivery of our growth strategy.”
