CHAP Group acquire A&A Civils

CHAP Group (Aberdeen) Ltd., the Westhill based construction firm, is delighted to
announce that it is expanding its civil engineering operations with the agreement to
acquire A&A Civils Limited. The acquisition is expected to help boost CHAP’s annual
revenues to over £80m. A&A was formed in 2018 and has 25 employees.

Hugh Craigie, CHAP Managing Director, said: “CHAP has been impressed with A&A’s
recent growth and development and we believe there is a strong strategic fit with our
Civils division and the wider CHAP Group. Nicol and Euan have clearly demonstrated
their leadership abilities, and we are excited about them and the A&A team joining the
CHAP family. While in many respects it will be business as usual for the A&A team, we
believe there are strong synergies that will benefit both businesses, our supply chain and
our valued customers.”

Nicol Dow, A&A Civils Managing Director, added: “The A&A team is extremely proud of
the company’s catalogue of work and achievements to date. We are pleased this caught
CHAP’s attention, leading to an approach with the opportunity to join them. Our
workforce produces an excellent standard of work, which will only strengthen CHAP’s
vision for the future. We look forward to A&A’s next chapter as part of CHAP and believe
that uniting both companies’ capabilities will benefit our existing client base and staff
alike.”

CHAP Group was advised on the acquisition by law firm Aberdein Considine and
accountants AAB.
