Using M&A to build strong foundations
For over two decades, Display World has built a reputation for delivering top-tier shopfitting, merchandising, and display solutions on both bulk roll-out and bespoke projects. With a dedicated in-house team handling every aspect of a project—from Project Management, CAD, Health & Safety, and Site Management—Display World offers a seamless process that takes projects from design briefing to manufacture, installation, and aftercare.
This holistic approach has earned Display World a strong and loyal customer base, as well as a dedicated team of employees who have been instrumental in the company's organic growth. However, as the retail landscape evolves, Display World recognizes the need to enhance its offerings to meet the changing demands of its customers.
The acquisition of IMB Contracts: A strategic growth initiative
The acquisition of IMB Contracts is a key part of Display World’s strategy to elevate its business and strengthen its service offerings. IMB Contracts, based in Wimborne, Dorset, is highly regarded in the shopfitting industry, with major clients such as Ladbrokes, SpecSavers, Paddy Power, and Coral. The company’s commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction aligns perfectly with Display World's values.
CEO Derek Robinson emphasized the importance of this shared ethos: "IMB Contracts is widely recognized as one of the country’s premier shopfitting teams and is held in high regard by their major customers. IMB shares our ethos that customers' confidence in our ability to deliver is and must remain central to everything we do."
