Two pals from East Yorkshire who went from small seaside tourism ventures to founding international active entertainment giant Gravity have secured £30 million to push the business on.
An initial trampoline park operation was launched in 2014 by Harvey Jenkinson and Michael Harrison by indoor ski slope Xscape at Castleford. Now a £27 million turnover business - bringing a host of indoor leisure activities to 17 prime locations nationwide and franchises beyond - it has completed a finance deal to drive the bar even higher. Sculptor Real Estate, the property arm of New York Stock Exchange listed Sculptor Capital Management Inc, has invested.
Revenues of £50 million are now being eyed for 2024, with karting, mini-golf and bowling key offers.
