Why Evergreen exists

A long-term purpose. A disciplined beginning.

The best specialist service businesses are not created overnight. Their real foundations are technical competence, trusted relationships and the judgement to deliver safely when the work matters.

Evergreen Compliance Group was founded to acquire and build a group of exceptional fire protection, life-safety and compliance businesses across the UK.

We intend to build carefully: beginning with the right business, being clear about how we plan to own it and taking decisions with a long-term perspective.

A deliberate sector focus

Why fire safety and compliance?

Essential

The work protects occupants, assets and the continuity of buildings and infrastructure.

Trust-led

Customers depend on technical skill, sound judgement and reliable service over many years.

Enduring

Regulation, maintenance and inspection create a long-term need for capable specialist providers.

Founder

David Dissake

David founded Evergreen after a career spanning commercial leadership, procurement, operations and business management across infrastructure, energy, construction and marine environments.

His work has centred on complex, operationally critical settings. He has led commercial and procurement activity, negotiated important business arrangements and worked with specialist suppliers, customers and other stakeholders where delivery, risk and long-term relationships all matter.

His experience includes acquisitions and M&A-related work, alongside the commercial assessment, negotiation and operational considerations that support long-term outcomes.

That combination led him to fire protection, life safety and compliance: essential sectors where reputation is earned through technical standards, dependable service and the trust built between people over many years.

Evergreen brings those strands together. David is building the company as an identifiable, founder-led owner and intends to draw on an established professional network of advisers, specialists and industry contacts as it grows. Business owners who contact Evergreen can speak with him directly and confidentially.

“An owner should be able to ask who is behind the buyer, how they think and what they intend to protect. Evergreen is designed to answer those questions directly.”
