Hill Hire

From yesterdays Sunday Times, Hill Hire are up for sale for the princely sum of £300 million! Seems their owners (HBOS) want out having reportedly pulled out of asset finance, although the rumours had been circulating for months.

Wonder who’ll try and buy the business… could it be GE (TIP / TLS)?

Dawsons ?

DAFMAD:
Dawsons ?

Could be any of the truck hire companies, Ryder, Fraikin or more probably the SG owned PEMA

but looking into the reason for the sale the finance company is blaming the American sub prime mortgage market.
