Over the past nine years M Group has acquired more than 20 businesses and has decided that it is time to sort out the branding of its £2.5bn portfolio.
M Group (Services) Limited began life as a part of Morrison Construction that was acquired by Anglian Water in 2000 and then spun out as Morrison Utility Services in 2008 under its first round of private equity owners. New private equity owners took over in 2016, rebranded it as M Group Services then sold it again in 2018. CVC Capital Partners took over in 2024, its fourth owner since 2008.
Morrison Water Services now becomes M Group Water.
M Group Energy will encompass Morrison Energy Services, Morrison Data Services and Callisto.
M Group Telecom brings together Morrison Telecom Services, Magdalene, Waldon Telecom and Avonline.
Milestone Infrastructure, the highways maintenance business acquired from Skanska in 2021.
Dyer & Butler, KH Engineering and Antagrade are now combined as M Group Rail & Aviation.
M Group chief executive Andrew Findlay said: “Our new brand reflects our commitment to be the best and most effective partner for our clients. It captures our capacity and capability for maintaining, renewing and reimagining infrastructure to meet the challenges and demands of a changing world.
“Across M Group, we will continue building long lasting partnerships with all our clients to support future demands across infrastructure, confident we have the capabilities and deep expertise to continue to deliver at the pace of change the market demands.
“Our new brand and values are a golden opportunity to look forward and be excited about what we can achieve for our clients in future. Our values – open, responsible, together, ambitious – are the cultural core of our organisation. They reflect who we want to be, creating phenomenal opportunities for professional and business growth.”
