Potens has expanded its operations in North West England with the acquisition of Blackburn based Olive Tree Domiciliary Services – a specialist in providing domiciliary care for adults with learning difficulties.
Nicki Stadames of Potens said: “We are delighted to now be part of this acquisition. Olive Tree has been very successful in a short space of time and we were impressed with the high standard of service delivery provided. We are delighted to be adding such an experienced team to our business and we look forward to supporting the service users and families with the same high standards clearly set by Jonathan and Louise Evans. We plan to meet more and more service users and staff over the coming weeks to find out how we can best work together in striding forward”.
Jonathan and Louise Evans, Directors of Olive Tree confirmed that: “We have had a great few years building Olive Tree and are very grateful to all our staff. It became clear to us however, that in an ever more demanding market, Olive Tree needed more than we could personally provide if it was to continue to grow. We chose Potens because, out of all the buyers found by Business Partnership, they most closely shared our goals for Olive Tree, it’s staff and customers.”
