£3m purchase takes TOM into Aberdeen

WEST of Scotland-based TOM is moving into Aberdeen with the acquisition of the commercial vehicle division of John R Weir from car dealership giant Arnold Clark, in what is believed to be a near-£3 million deal.

Jim Rafferty, managing director of vehicle rental specialist TOM, had earlier this week revealed his appetite for further acquisitions to The Herald.

Arnold Clark earlier this month announced its purchase of the overall John R Weir business as part of its continuing expansion of its footprint of car dealerships, and has now agreed to sell the commercial vehicle part of this business to TOM.
