                       Ross Group PLC

As  indicated in the circular to shareholders dated 2  March
2000  ('the  Circular'), Ross Group PLC ('the Company')  has
been  reviewing  its  current  property  portfolio  and   in
particular  the premises at Giltpack Building, Nutsey  Lane,
Totton, Southampton ('the Property').  On 21 March 2000, the
Company  exchanged contracts with Millbrook Bedding  Limited
under  which the Company will sell the Property for a  total
consideration  of £600,000.  Completion under  the  contract
will  be  upon  the  Property being  available  with  vacant
possession,  at a time to be notified by the  Company  after
the end of April 2000 but before the end of December 2000.

Since  the sale of Giltpack Packaging Limited by the Company
in  December last year, the Property has been surplus to the
ongoing  requirements of the Company.   As  at  the  end  of
December 1999, the Property had a net book value of £848,000
indicating  a loss on sale of £248,000.  This diminution  in
value was taken into account by the Company in preparing the
loss estimate for the Company, included within the Circular.

The  net  proceeds from the sale will be used to reduce  the
bank  debt of the Company and the Company believes that  the
sale  is  in  the  best  interests of the  Company  and  its
shareholders.
