NI estate agency Simon Brien announces new acquisition
Bradley NI in Newry is now the first business to become a franchisee under Simon Brien's new franchise model. Simon Brien, which has five branches around Belfast and Co Down, was acquired by Sherry FitzGerald Group in the Republic of Ireland last year. The acquisition of Bradley NI, which is led by chartered surveyor and managing director Garrett O'Hare, now adds locations in Newry, Warrenpoint and Newcastle to the wider Simon Brien business. Sherry FitzGerald said the deal marked the 'next chapter' in its ambition to broaden its presence around Northern Ireland. Mr O'Hare said: 'We're incredibly proud to be the first franchisee of the Simon Brien brand. "This move allows us to retain our local knowledge and client relationships while benefiting from the marketing power, cutting-edge technology, and support of a respected all-island brand. "It's the perfect partnership to drive our next phase of growth.' Simon Brien, founder and managing director, added: 'Launching our franchise model is a significant milestone, and we're delighted to welcome Garrett and the team at Bradley NI. "Their integrity, ambition, and deep understanding of their markets make them the ideal first franchise partner. "This expansion is just the beginning as we look to bring the Simon Brien service to even more clients across Northern Ireland.' News Catch Up - Wednesday 21 May Sherry FitzGerald is the Republic of Ireland's largest estate agency, with 110 offices, 73 of which are franchised. It has been in business for over 40 years and describes its business as 'the most successful franchise model in the Irish property market'. The rebrand to Simon Brien Bradley will start over the summer, with a full launch expected by early autumn, Sherry FitzGerald said.
