Vp plc, the equipment rental specialist, today announces the acquisition of the entire issued share capital of TechRentals NZ Ltd ("TRNZ") for a cash consideration of NZ$2.592 million (New Zealand dollars).

TRNZ is engaged in the specialist rental of test & measurement equipment and calibration services in New Zealand. The business, which has been established for over 30 years, currently operates from a single location in Auckland, New Zealand.

In April 2016, Vp plc announced the acquisition of TR Pty Ltd ("TR"), also engaged in the specialist rental of test & measurement equipment and provider of calibration services in Australia and Malaysia.

TRNZ used to be part of the TR group of companies but was disposed of under previous ownership in 2009. The TRNZ business will operate within the wide TR group of businesses which have existing activities in Australia, New Zealand and Malaysia.

Jeremy Pilkington, Chairman of Vp plc, commented:

"We are delighted to welcome the experienced TRNZ back to the TR Group and also to the wider team at Vp. The acquisition of TRNZ further increases the TR Group's exposure to the healthy New Zealand market."
