Mayflower Stone

EOTTrustees.co.uk is proud to support the trustees of Mayflower Stone, helping them discharge their duties with strong governance and compliance, clear decision-making and documentation, and effective communication with employee beneficiaries.

Mayflower Stone Limited, the leading South West supplier of stone worktops, transitioned to employee ownership through the sale of 100% of the business to an Employee Ownership Trust (EOT). The transaction made all 26 employees beneficiaries of ownership, aligning the company’s future with the team behind its success.

Shareholders Jamie Dowdall, James Wood and Nathan Stonecliffe chose an EOT as a values-aligned succession solution, ensuring continuity, protecting the company’s reputation and supporting ongoing growth. The transition rewards employees and provides a stable platform for long-term success. Our trustee support helps translate employee ownership into a practical working model, with strong compliance, clear decision records and regular engagement with employee beneficiaries.

“Our goal is to continue to grow, offering new materials, expanding our customer base and rewarding the long-term commitment of our people. An EOT can be a powerful catalyst for further business success and provides an orderly, undisruptive way for owners to plan for the future.”
