News: MSSR expands with Seneca Investments

In the latest deal, Seneca has injected a substantial investment into Tienda Limited whilst also acquiring a 49 per cent share of the business. The remaining 51 per cent has been acquired by the management team of MSSR Forecourt Developments Ltd.

She said: "The deal creates a strategic platform for their further growth and expansion – delivering a full-service offering for design, construction and fit out complimented with a complete design and build offering.
"The strength of MSSR and Tienda's combined business strategy and operational synergy will undoubtedly open doors to new opportunities and markets for both companies."
Michael Sanders, MD of MSSR and Tienda, said: "We're looking forward to working with the Tienda team on consolidating our resources into a full-service offering and rolling it out to our combined client base of blue-chip retailers and specifiers, as well as targeting new markets together."
