Trocadero property merry go round

Article Abstract:

Trocadero was acquired by Brent Walker in 1998 and then by Power Corporation in 1992, but it went into receivership to be rescued by Burford. Burford acquired the company which was then demerged to form Trocadero plc, and the company announced a JV with Sega for a theme park. Burford is acquiring the Trocadero building and Trocadero will be able to focus on leisure interests such as rights to characters from Enid Blyton. The company will also be able to reduce its debt.

Trocadero: fight over rights

Article Abstract:

Trocadero is a UK leisure company which has acquired rights to the Enid Blyton estate. The company aims to boost revenue from the estate through boosting revenue from existing contracts and renewing contracts on better terms. The company can exert pressure since licenses for publishing rights can be withdrawn when they are scheduled for renewal. The company also aims to use Enid Blyton characters for a new leisure complex, and plans a Sega theme park by Aug 1996.

Bewitched, bewildered and bothered

Article Abstract:

Trocadero is a UK company which was demerged from Burford, a real estate company, in Oct 1995. The company has joined the UK Alternative Investment Market and has seen a rise in its share price. Trocadero is investing in indoor attractions to provide a SegaWorld theme park. Sega is also investing in the project. The investment should increase the number of visitors and the amount each one spends. Trocadero shares are a speculative investment.
