The increase in turnover has also resulted in an increase in staff says the company with eight new workers last year and another eight set to join later this year. This would be a boost to the local area and would bring the total workforce to almost 90. The company says they have invested over £500,000 in new equipment and aims at similar levels of investment in the year ahead.
Managing Director Mike Wright said this week: “These really are fantastic figures and I’d like to thank everyone in the team for all the hard work and initiative in the past twelve months.”
