Franklins Solicitors LLP would like to congratulate All Calls Answered Limited on its successful purchase of the business and assets of Jet Virtual. Jet Virtual specialises in providing virtual office spaces and telephone answering services to various clients and businesses across the globe, with virtual office spaces available in various locations including London and other European locations such as Barcelona.

We were delighted to support on this transaction, advising All Calls Answered Limited on its acquisition of Jet Virtual and working closely with the other parties throughout.

Rebekah Hobbs, Corporate Solicitor at Franklins, said “It was great to work alongside Andi and Dimitris in this transaction and to advise on All Calls Answered Limited’s acquisition of Jet Virtual. Andi and Dimitris were a pleasure to work with and I wish them all the best in growing and expanding Jet Virtual.”

Delighted with the outcome of the transaction, Director Dimitris Metaxas said “We cannot thank the Franklins team enough, including Holly and Flora, and especially Rebekah, who was available for direct phone calls with no prior notice, on many occasions.

We feel that we chose well using Franklins for their support, knowledge, and expertise and are grateful for their counsel and input, in this strange new area of buying a business where there are no physical assets, and no employees, and no freehold or leasehold premises, dealing with parties living outside Europe.

We hope to now drive the business forward, adding Hong Kong, Melbourne, and Wall St addresses to the options we already offer our 100+ existing clients, and those new service users who will hopefully join us soon.”

We wish All Calls Answered Limited the very best in their endeavours in the future.

Leading the transaction, Holly Threlfall, Associate Partner at Franklins said “It was a team effort that could not have been achieved in such a tight timescale but for the hard work of the wider business services team here at Franklins, the support of Helen Brocklebank and the team at RSM and especially Peter Thompson of CanTrack Global whose hard work and dedication drove the transaction from the beginning. Peter, and all of the shareholders, of CanTrack were a pleasure to work with and I wish them all the best on their next endeavours.”

Selling your business is never easy, but selling during the pandemic is another ballgame altogether!

Switch Consulting was established in 2008 and Martin Wells and Alex Foxell toiled over 10 years to develop the company into the successful recruitment agency that it is, with offices in London, Birmingham and Manchester. Specialising in the retail, leisure and hospitality industries they faced challenges, as we all did, in the early months of this year. However, with a strong trading history behind them Alex and Martin nevertheless secured a buyer and successfully completed on their sale in the summer amidst the pandemic.

Leading the sale Holly Threlfall, Associate Partner & Corporate Solicitor at Franklins, says “It was a pleasure to work alongside Martin and Alex in their sale. Guiding them through the disclosure and due diligence process and advising them on the Share Purchase Agreement may have been a little different this summer, but ultimately we were still able to successfully navigate the sales process keeping our clients’ interests at heart.”

Pleased with the transaction, seller Alex Foxell says “Holly and her team were superb from the very start of the process through to post-sale. Great rapid and responsive communication that was also very flexible. Solid and wise counsel and advice that guided and supported us through the sale process. This was particularly impressive given the need for everything to be conducted remotely. Overall the quality was very good and I’m very happy to highly recommend Holly and the team.”

Franklins would like to congratulate all the parties involved on a successful transaction and wish them the best of luck in the future.
