Bregal Freshstream has announced its acquisition of British handbag and accessories brand Radley.
Founded in 1998, Radley has a multi-channel business and established distribution network covering the UK, Europe and Asia. Since 2007, the business has been majority owned by Exponent Private Equity.
Following the deal, Don McCarthy will join the business as Chairman. Don is an entrepreneur with over 40 years investing, operating and controlling many high street names.
