Epiris

We are delighted to share that Epiris has been shortlisted for two categories in the 2025 Real Deals Private Equity Awards.   🏆 Fundraise of the Year: Over €1bn 🏆 Private Equity House of the Year: Upper Mid-Cap   At Epiris, our mission is to build great businesses that deliver outstanding returns for investors. In 2024, we successfully closed Epiris Fund III at £1bn and Epiris’ “Value + Transform” strategy continues to drive strong returns, earning recognition as the 7th highest-performing investor in HEC-Dow Jones’ 2023 mid-market buyout rankings.    Winners to be announced at the Real Deals awards ceremony held on 3rd April 2025 - we wish good luck to all nominees this year.    #SolvingComplexity #PrivateEquity #PEA25

We are delighted to see Dutypoint Group join forces with our portfolio company Stuart Turner Group, further strengthening its position as a true-scale player in the residential and commercial water pump and pressurisation industry.    Epiris acquired Stuart Turner in 2022 with the aim of transforming it into a leading provider of water pressure-boosting solutions in the UK and internationally.    We look forward to supporting the continued growth of Stuart Turner Group's growing portfolio of marketing-leading brands.
