Greg Lawson, CEO of Smart Group commented on the acquisition: “This is a sector of the market that we have had great ambitions to enter. Whilst several opportunities have arisen over the years, none have had quite the same synergy as we felt with Jonathan and his team. Last Supper is a market leader in their segment, and we believe that we are well positioned to take the brand to new heights.”

Jonathan Attwood, Founder of Last Supper added: “Since establishing Last Supper in 2003, it has always been my aim to ultimately partner with a broader like-minded business. Smart Group felt like the right fit, as their focus was very much on maintaining the core values and identity of the brand. This is a great opportunity for Last Supper to continue to grow and finesse its’ offer as well as benefit from the wider support of The Smart Group.” 

Upon the acquisition, Jonathan will work closely with Greg, and Smart Group Managing Director Chloe Jackson in integrating the brand, whilst ensuring the brand remains autonomous and synonymous in which their clients and venues have enjoyed over the years.
