Experience of doing business in Basildon
Basildon is a great place to do business as there is a very good support network of suppliers, skill providers and coordination from the borough council that ensures that sustainable businesses can be innovative and are ready for growth.
Aside of the great location Basildon can rely on, it is a town of hard working people, always willing to support, develop and promote business.
Our workforce is result minded and always ready for a new challenge. Manufacturing flexibility and quality guarantee have always characterized our plant. The newest and most recent investment has been the Customer Centre where the company invested 1.2 million pounds to bring even more visitors and customers to the award winning plant.
