A North East construction specialist says contracts with the likes of easyJet and Barker & Stonehouse will help it deliver a boost in sales next year.
Construction and plant and equipment hire firm Seymour CPM says 80% of its order book is already confirmed for the year ahead, thanks to a raft of repeat business. The firm ended its last financial year in September with a turnover of almost £4m, and now expects the figure to grow to £5m.
The firm, which has been trading for almost 10 years and moved to its current site in Hartlepool three years ago, is currently helping Barker & Stonehouse with its Tyneside expansion plans, having successfully completed a warehouse in Middlesbrough for the furniture retailer. It is working with principal contractor Mcluckie Projects to build a new furniture store at the Metrocentre Retail Park, where the building shell is complete and external works are under way, ahead of a planned February completion date.
