Kirsty and Neil Scott started Veriflo at their dining room table in 2015, with two young children, and two rules that never changed. They never risked the house, and they never let the business come before their marriage.

Almost a decade later, they sold the business to Inflexion-backed Celnor Group, under the  strict conditions that Veriflo would keep its name, culture, and the team that they’d built.

The same rules that protected their home and their business decided who they sold to.

Selling Veriflo was never about walking away from the team who'd built it with them, so they picked a buyer who would let it stay Veriflo at its core. Celnor promised no rebrand, and its badge and culture would stay intact. 

And they kept that promise, within a day of the deal completing, their Operations Director became Managing Director.

Now, two years on, they’re both sitting down with Josh to talk about the deal, their journey, and everything they’ve learnt along the way.
