Erno Laszlo acquired by RBS private equity
Former Molton Brown ceo Charles Denton to partner
The brand has been owned by Fox Paine since 2002, during which time it enjoyed significant investment driving new product development and international expansion.
Linsdey McMurray, head of RBS Equity Finance said: “Erno Laszlo is a unique luxury proposition with a discerning loyal following. We believe it is well positioned to take advantage of the growing demand for premium anti-ageing products with proven efficacy.”
RBS Equity Finance will be the sole institutional investor in Erno Laszlo and is partnering with Charles Denton, former ceo of Molton Brown, who successfully led that brand’s transformation from a single hairdressing boutique in Mayfair into a global premium business.
Denton commented: “I’m incredibly excited about the partnership with RSB Equity Finance and our acquisition of this exceptional beauty brand. The extraordinary heritage and iconic status of Laszlo will provide a wonderful foundation as we seek to expand the business globally.”
