Recently the company "Hillarys" has been aquired by "Hunter Douglas". This is not a take over or a rebrand its just that the parent company has changed meaning that Hillarys are owned by Hunter Douglas but will remain as a stand alone business under the name "Hillarys" http://investor.hunterdouglasgroup.com/news-releases/news-release-details/hunter-douglas-acquire-hillarys. Here are some more articles about the aquisition: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/5a5c7e3140f0b61ca91f66f8/hunter-douglas-hillarys-merger-decision.pdf https://www.retailgazette.co.uk/blog/2017/07/hillarys-takeover-proposal-halted-cma/ https://www.nottinghampost.com/news/business/notts-based-blinds-maker-hillarys-172687 https://www.reuters.com/article/brief-hunter-douglas-completed-acquisiti/brief-hunter-douglas-completed-acquisition-of-hillarys-idUSFWN1K906H http://www.thebusinessdesk.com/eastmidlands/news/2002006-hillarys-sold-300m
I feel that this is the same as the Walkers Crisps page /info/en/?search=Walkers_(snack_foods) which was aquired by Pepsico /info/en/?search=PepsiCo http://www.pepsico.com/About/Our-History but still operates under its name "Walkers". As a result I feel that this page /info/en/?search=Hillarys_Blinds needs to function as its own entity with the parent = Hunter Douglas already being applied. - Chris050583 ( talk) 09:43, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
