PIB Group has completed a record number of acquisitions in 2025, with a total of 27 deals to September.

In 2026, the group’s focus will be on supporting and driving more targeted acquisitions that offer synergies or new capabilities within its existing growth markets.
Ryan Brown, deputy chief executive at PIB Group, said: “2025 has been a pivotal year for PIB Group and I am proud of the drive and commitment demonstrated by our teams across all our markets. We set out to achieve significant growth through M&A and we have delivered that.
“As we look ahead to 2026, we are entering another chapter in PIB’s story. Our focus is shifting to become more strategic and deliberate in how we build value. Our M&A activity will be highly targeted, with each acquisition being immediately additive to value by generating clear synergies or bringing specialist and niche capabilities into the group.
”This focused approach will be exclusively centred on deepening our presence within our growth markets of Spain, Netherlands, Germany and France.”
