South Tyneside engineering specialist HQ Fabrication Ltd is set to create new jobs after significant contract wins triggered strong growth.
The Jarrow-based business was launched as a one-man operation five years ago to solve problems through engineering for a range of sectors, including food manufacturing, oil and gas and mining, heavy manufacturing and satellite communications. Since then the company, which designs, fabricates and engineers products for clients across Europe, has seen steady growth with a number of significant contract wins, which has allowed managing director Chris Hall to reinvest back into the business.
Mr Hall now plans to create a new department for the automotive industry, which will lead to the creation of up a number of engineering and admin roles. It is also planning to develop its own product portfolio, to help it establish a good manufacturing foothold in the region.
