SVELLA CAN IDENTIFY HIDDEN VALUE AND HAS THE RIGHT SKILL SET TO LEVERAGE OPPORTUNITIES
By identifying hidden value and focusing on under-performing businesses that require a new entrepreneurial mindset, we have consistently generated substantial shareholder return.
SVELLA was founded by serial entrepreneurs who, as former executives of Stobart Group, have previously turned a £1m investment into a £1.6 billion diversified group across two listed companies - generating more than £7.3 billion in revenue and creating over 10,000 jobs.
​
We are good at investing the right level of cash to generate super returns and are experts at driving underperforming businesses. Our track record demonstrates this.
