SCP acquires TM Lewin

SCP Private Equity has acquired TM Lewin, a British menswear retailer. The brand was first established in 1898.

SCP has acquired TM Lewin through Torque Brands, an acquisition vehicle which is focused on acquiring complementary British brands into one centralised shared services platform.

James Cox, Managing Partner of SCP, said: “There are significant headwinds against great retail businesses in the current environment – posing a very real threat to the sector’s future. We wholeheartedly believe that specialist vertical-specific British brands, such as TM Lewin, will continue to hold a premier position in the eyes of the global consumer, and look forward to the challenge of helping the company adapt to the rapidly changing retail landscape.”
