Business description

Across two divisions, the group provides a complete mechanical engineering service that encompasses the design, fabrication, sale, installation, and maintenance of ‘off-the-shelf’ and bespoke equipment and machinery.
The group has attained a strong presence within the food and beverage markets, owing to its sector-specific equipment sales and services that are supported by specialist engineers. As such, the group continues to succeed in an industry with a significantly high barrier to entry.
All fabrication is carried out at the group’s premises, which include a well-equipped, ISO 9001-accredited precision engineering workshop.
The group’s ability to realise evolving requirements across various sectors has underpinned its client loyalty and the generation of repeat business.
The group is offered for sale to facilitate the managing director’s retirement plans.
Offers invited.
