Denby Pottery

Denby Pottery – Established in 1809, Denby Pottery Company manufactures high-quality stoneware from its Derbyshire factory, where it also welcomes 250,000 visitors a year to the Denby Visitor Centre. Having been acquired in a traditional private equity transaction several years prior to Hilco’s involvement in 2009, Denby became overleveraged with a £72 million historic debt burden, a substantially underfunded final salary pension scheme, and a high fixed cost base.
