Williams Medical Supplies
Williams Medical Supplies (WMS) stocks, supplies and distributes an extensive range of medical products to GPs and other primary care customers. WMS stocks pharmaceuticals, consumables and medical equipment as well as providing support services to GP surgeries and practice management.
The business was founded initially as a distributor of vaccines and injectables. Since then, WMS has grown organically and has seen turnover rise to more than £47m.
ISIS invested £10.5m in equity to fund the MBO. The transaction was the first investment from the ISIS IV fund.
"This is a great opportunity for WMS. We are well positioned in the market and in a strong growth phase. ISIS has exhibited a market knowledge and enthusiasm for the business that has been a true asset in getting this deal completed."
