Entrepeneur Mo Chaudry, owner of UK-based Waterworld Leisure, has acquired Adventure Island Mini Golf and plans to expand the brand.
Waterworld acquired the indoor golf business, which is located at the Star City retail complex in Birmingham, UK, from founder John Whitehead. The acquisition will form the basis of a £20m investment by Chaudry to take the leisure brand nationwide.
The first Adventure Mini Golf site was founded nine years ago and features two themed 18-hole courses across three levels. With £20m to be invested over the next five years, a chain of additional locations is set to open in a number of locations across the UK.
Whitehead said: “We have had an incredibly successful time over the last nine years, launching and operating Adventure Island Mini Golf and making it one of the most successful destination leisure attractions in the Midlands. The time is now right to expand and develop the brand further; working with Mo Chaudry and the Waterworld group will allow us to realise the full potential of this fun and exciting concept nationwide."
