Crowe advises Displayplan on its sale to HH Global.

Crowe has advised the shareholders of Displayplan Limited (Displayplan), a YFM Equity Partners (YFM) portfolio company, on its sale to Blackstone-backed HH Global, an international market leader in tech-enabled creative production and global retail marketing activation.

Displayplan is an award-winning retail display specialist which designs, delivers and manages complex point-of-sale solutions and engaging in-store experiences for leading brands and retailers worldwide.

Backed by YFM in 2012, Managing Director Scott Morris and Executive Chairman Neil Campbell, supported by a high calibre team of creative, structural design and production specialists, have built Displayplan into the outstanding international business that it is today.

The joining of the two companies represents a progressive move for HH Global and is an exceptional addition to its retail solutions business, combining category-leading talent and complementary expertise to deliver enhanced retail marketing activation capabilities for an impressive portfolio of global brands.

Crowe's role and team

The Crowe team of Andy Coghlan, Connor Tostevin and Charlie Copp acted as lead advisers to shareholders Scott Morris, Neil Campbell, YFM and Nigel Rzemieniecki.
