BRCK Group Acquires Jacksons
BRCK Group PLC has acquired H.S. Jackson & Son (Fencing) Limited, known as Jacksons, in a deal worth over £20 million.
Jacksons is a premium fencing, gates and perimeter security specialist, designing, manufacturing and installing timber and steel fencing systems for infrastructure, commercial and residential markets.
The acquisition marks a further step in BRCK Group’s ongoing diversification strategy, broadening its product and service offering across the construction, infrastructure, commercial and residential sectors.
Founded in 1947, Jacksons is a long-established family business headquartered in Ashford, Kent, with further sites near Bath and Chester, and its Autogate Systems business based in Bolton.
Jacksons serves a wide range of end markets, including critical national infrastructure, schools, government-backed projects, commercial developments and premium residential schemes. With annual sales of more than £40 million, Jacksons expands BRCK Group’s reach into a wider range of specialist markets and adds significant manufacturing capability to the Group.
Jacksons’ timber fencing is produced using its proprietary Jakcure process and carries a 25-year guarantee against rot and insect attack, while its steel fencing is backed by a 25-year service life guarantee.
Peter Jackson will remain with the business as Managing Director.
Frank Hanna, Chief Executive Officer of BRCK Group, said:
“Jacksons is a quality business with a strong reputation for product excellence, customer service and specialist market knowledge. The acquisition supports our strategy to build a broader, stronger Group and expands BRCK’s reach into specialist markets including schools, government projects and major infrastructure.
“I am pleased that Peter Jackson will continue to lead the business and look forward to welcoming the wider Jacksons team to BRCK Group. This acquisition reflects our commitment to backing quality British businesses and building a group that can support customers across the full breadth of the construction sector.”
Peter Jackson, Managing Director of Jacksons, added:
“BRCK is the ideal custodian for the Jacksons brand, with a shared commitment to product quality and customers. We are proud of what Jacksons has achieved over three generations as a family business and look forward to driving the next stage of growth as part of BRCK Group.”
