New Manchester Factory And Depot

Construction News Image
Elite GSS has invested in a large new depot and factory space at Entwistle House in Middleton, following a move away from their previous factory in Manchester.

It's been busy and exciting where they've grown the business, employed more staff and invested in their vehicle fleet. You might even spot one of their vehicles with striking graphics on the road! Also, look out for the little monkey mascot that has accompanied the Elite Timber Supplies vehicle driver on every journey (for over 10 years!)

They relocated at the start of the year to a headquarters location where everything is now central, improving workflow, delivery, and customer' service to the industry in such challenging market conditions.

The move was a big step and allowed Elite group of companies to strengthen the team's collaboration and make the workings of operations even smoother, along with more storage space for their range of products and additional room for expanding the business!

• Manufacturing abilities

Earlier this year, they broadened their manufacturing abilities to develop for net-zero carbon use within the automotive sector and to help the environment.

• New depot

Most recently, Managing Director Kris Heard saw the need to relocate our factory in Manchester to another nearby location to push the business further. It has allowed the group to cover more of the UK by expanding to the local area.

Kris commented: "On the factory premises, there is also an office with some of our newest staff. This will allow us to offer more job opportunities in the area as we continue to grow.

We've now got offices around the country with multiple points to offer a collection service, making our service competitive."

Why not take the opportunity to visit the new Manchester depot, search for Elite GSS Manchester, and see what they have to offer, whilst having a brew and talking to a member of the friendly team. They offer a wide range of services to construction, civil engineering, event, leisure companies and more!

They business is pushing awareness of their wider range of products over the upcoming months with the fact that they can provide an overall solution for temporary access and safety on-site. Having multiple depots has proven to be a good place to start achieving this.

• The future for Elite group of companies

Kris Heard, Managing Director of the Elite group of companies, said: "This year we'll continue to grow and invest further in equipment and depots across the country, this includes covering the South West, Scotland and also expanding into Europe. As a group of businesses we're extremely lucky to have such a brilliant team, one that works well together, helps and supports each other and genuinely enjoys what they do and the culture we've created. I have no doubt that this year will be another record year, with many more exciting and fun times ahead."

The group lies at the heart with Elite GSS Ltd, a multi-award-winning company and a member of the East Anglian Festival Network and MultiMatts, which both are part of the CPA and  Constructionline Gold Members, along with the newest addition of Elite Timber Supplies that is PEFC® and FSC® certified!
