North East offshore specialist FES International is on the hunt for a fourth site as it looks to take advantage of increasing demand for its services.
The Ashington-based business designs, manufacturers and supplies fluid transfer systems from its North Seaton Industrial Estate base. The company was started as a two-man team by Rob Anderson and technical director Ian Latimer 25 years ago with first year turnover of £143,000, and has since grown a list of global oil and gas clients, as well as a growing list of renewables customers.
Three years after acquiring space on the Jubilee Industrial Estate which more than doubled the company’s footprint, while also adding a new division, managing director Mr Anderson said the firm has expanded into a third site close to its Ashington plant, and that the company is now viewing locations for a fourth potential site.
