Blue Apple joins CH&CO

Blue Apple has announced that it is to join forces with CH&CO. The merger will expand the latter’s workplace portfolio, strengthening its positioning in the marketplace.

Blue Apple joins CH&CO’s workplace businesses, Gather and Gather and Vacherin. Brian Allanson and Ruston Toms, co-founders of Blue Apple, will continue to manage the business and say that its brand and ethos will remain.    

With aligned cultures and values, the plan is for best practice to be shared across the expanded workplace estate. Blue Apple will also gain the extra support that a larger organisation like CH&CO supplies, especially from its support teams and learning and development opportunities for team members. 

Toms said: “We’re all super-excited about joining CH&CO and believe that the synergies created will benefit our amazing teams, clients and customers. This strategic move will combine resources, expertise and passion to elevate our already high standards to the next level.” 

Bill Toner, chief executive officer of CH&CO, added: “Brian Allanson and Ruston Toms have built a great business over the last 25 years and we’re delighted they are joining CH&CO. The Blue Apple business is a great addition to our portfolio of workplace brands, and we’re excited about the opportunities this merger provides all team members and our partners.”
