After purchase of Bowlplex, the company phased out the Bowlplex and AMF branded centres and rebranded them (as the already its biggest brand of its three) Hollywood Bowl. TOBC itself then rebranded as Hollywood Bowl Group (HBG). In September 2014, Electra Private Equity acquired TOBC for £91 million. TOBC sold centres to 1st Bowl (now known as MFA Bowl) as part of the merger. In August 2010, AMF Bowling UK acquired the Hollywood Bowl business from Mitchells & Butlers PLC and combined the companies into The Original Bowling Company Ltd (TOBC), UK’s largest bowling centre operator. AMF Bowling UK then embarked on another programme of refurbishment and since 2007 had opened five new centres in the UK. In 2004 certain shareholders of the British leisure conglomerate, Bourne Leisure, acquired the AMF-branded centres in the UK.
The AMF Bowling centres were found at Ashford, Gravesend, Stamford Hill and other locations. The company then embarked on a program to refurbish the acquired centres. After Goldman Sachs purchased AMF Bowling in 1996, the number of centres owned and operated by AMF Bowling in the UK rose in 1997 from 15 to 37. Between 19, AMF Bowling UK acquired its first 15 centres. The United States company AMF Bowling opened its first centre in the United Kingdom in Stamford Hill, North London on 20 January 1960.
