Merc Capital chief executive Tony Merhi acquired the Norwest hotel in mid-2018.
“As a local Australian brand, the Rydges team brings to Norwest a unique perspective, which will reflect the area and the needs of our valued guests,” Merhi says.
“We look forward to working with the Rydges team to make Rydges Norwest a huge success,” he says.
