Xystos Buys Di Palomo From Unex

Xystos has bought leading bath and body brand Di Palomo from owners Unex Designs, with the Unex directors concluding that after a successful 18-month period of being distributed by the company, this was “unquestionably the correct commercial decision.”

‘We are delighted to own this prestigious brand and regard its acquisition as a natural development as we increase our own intellectual property portfolio,” commented Xystos’ managing director David Lewis. “This is the direction our business is taking as we look to further invest in brands we own and to strengthen our portfolio through natural growth and company/brand acquisition.”

Added Martyn Bartlett-Judge, managing director of Unexs: ‘Xystos have unrivalled and invaluable experience in this market sector and are perfectly placed to take the brand that we have developed and cherished over the past 12 years to the next level. Fellow directors George Copeland, Rob Tyler and I wish Xystos the very best of luck in this acquisition and look forward to seeing the brand go from strength to strength under their banner.”

The sale of the Di Palomo brand – which is inspired by fond memories of Italy – will enable Unex to focus on other growing areas of its business.
