Seven case studies document recent examples of merger activity across five different sectors. One is a European example; one is international; one is a merger between a co-operative and a company limited by shares The cases provide an insight into the process, the pitfalls, and the potential benefits, seen through the eyes of the participants themselves. A pilot study was also carried out, working hand-in-hand with two mushroom groups as they went through the process of merging to become the largest organic mushroom growing co-operative in the UK.
