CORPORATE PROFILE

MWB owns two of the UK’s leading hotel brands, Malmaison and Hotel du Vin, as well as MWB Business Exchange ("Business Exchange"), a leading serviced office provider. MWB has been developing these businesses for many years with the intention of selling them at a substantial premium and returning the proceeds to its shareholders when the time is right between now and 31 December 2016.

Malmaison and Hotel du Vin have won many  hotel awards and are widely recognised as providing an excellent hotel and restaurant experience. Malmaison is focussed on the UK’s leading regional centres whilst Hotel du Vin is aimed more at the leisure market with its hotels often situated in university towns and cathedral cities. In an exciting new development, the group has opened two standalone restaurants in central London this year known as Bistro du Vin.

Business Exchange provides a first rate serviced office solution with all the advantages of convenience, flexibility and immediate availability for large corporate clients, small and medium sized businesses and start-ups. With a specific focus on London it provides offices all over the UK to its clients.

More details of the group’s operations and strategy are contained in its latest financial results for the 18 months ended 30 June 2011.
