Lee & Holmes Funeral Directors sold by Kings Professional

A highly respected funeral services business which has been established for 86 years has been sold by Kings Business.
Lee & Holmes Funeral Directors, based in North Yorkshire, has proudly served its communities since 1935 and has established a fantastic reputation in its area.

The business is committed to helping their clients cope and adjust to their bereavement, providing a 24-hour service, all-year round.

The current owner, Martin Holmes, decided that now is the right time to sell the family business and Kings Business was instructed to market the business for sale.

Utilising our bespoke buyer intelligence along with our market-leading research campaign, the company received strong levels of interest and received 14 viewings and three offers.

The buyer is an existing operator looking to expand their own funeral services business. They said the reputation and catchment area is what attracted them to Lee & Holmes.

Upon completion of the sale, Martin Holmes said: “I am very happy with the service from Kings Business.

“Thanks to Adam Dell’Armi for securing the sale and pushing throughout with constant and calm communication to help with the completion. A first-class service.”

Adam Dell’Armi, Senior Sales Negotiator at Kings Business said: “Congratulations to both parties, I wish Mr Holmes the best in his retirement and the best of luck to the owners with their exciting business venture.”
