The transaction enables founder and Managing Director Mel Burrell to progress his planned retirement, while supporting an orderly handover of the business to new owners David Myles and Anuj Kapoor.

The business has a long-established presence across the UK and a growing international customer base, with pits already supplied to 17 countries.
The new ownership will build on the capabilities, experience and reputation already established by the MBE team, with a focus on continued product development, innovation, ambitious growth and further expansion across Europe, the US and wider global markets.
David Myles said: “MBE / Premier Pits is a specialist British manufacturing business with a strong reputation, experienced team, and well-established customer base. Our immediate priority is continuity, supporting the team and taking time to understand the business properly as we build on what Mel has created.”
Mel Burrell said: “I am pleased to have completed the transaction and to see the business move into safe hands. I will be supporting David and Anuj through a short handover period and wish the team every success for the future.”
