Michael Greenough, the chief executive and chairman of Torex Retail, said: "The new leadership team at Torex Retail previously had a successful partnership with Cerberus and General Atlantic at SSA Global and we recognise the value that they add. "We are excited to be working with these two knowledgeable investors again."
