Scrivens expands further with purchase of Ronald Brown

Scrivens Opticians has strengthened its foothold in South East England with the acquisition of the Ronald Brown Group of opticians for an undisclosed sum. 

The purchase of the 21-branch business, based in London and the Home Counties, follows Scrivens’ acquisitions of the Eye Check and OC Weathersbee groups – six and seven outlets respectively – earlier this year. The Birmingham-based group now comprises 138 optical branches and six dedicated hearing centres.

Services from Scrivens' subsidiary The Hearing Company are now available in 500 branches nationwide, including Dollond & Aitchison and Conlons Opticians.
