History

TDR Capital was co-founded in 2002 by Manjit Dale and Stephen Robertson.[1][2] It is located on Bentinck Street in Marylebone, central London.[1][2]

In 2006, it was a large shareholder of the Gondola Group, which owned PizzaExpress.[3]

In September 2013, TDR acquired the David Lloyd Leisure fitness chain for £750 million.[4]

In 2014 they acquired 85% of the developers Keepmoat. The remaining 15% was acquired by Sun Capital Partners (UK).[5]

In March 2015, it negotiated to acquire LeasePlan.[6] In October 2015, they acquired a stake in Euro Garages.[7]

As of 2015, it has over £4.8 billion (€8 billion) in committed capital.[1]

In October 2020, it purchased Asda from Walmart, as part of a consortium with Zuber and Mohsin Issa, with whom it owns EG Group.[8]
