Manufacturing

1991

Eurowire Containers… the rise

In the begining, one half of the design team that created the industry standard 30×18 wire trays for bakery & Food.

In 1996 the company became a Limted company after purchasing 10,000 sq ft factory in Halesowen.

Further factory space

As our final direct competitor ceased to exist – when purchased by Caparo – we diversified into stainless fabrication. At this point, the purchase of the 17,000 sq ft unit completed the current site.

E-commerce

We went into online sales with a retail catelogue with near 27,000 products available online, this opened our business to buyers having a look at our business more frequently as well as opening up new markets.

Bakery Dynamics R&D

Creating an R&D division and brand Bakery Dynamics. Initially to protect the brand reputation with the launch of new products including bread tins, without any orders, investment and some ‘reverse engineering’ saw the rise in client take-up of our all new product line up, to my surprise my idea, design and subsequent delivery to market of the 400g Mini (the half a full loaf) simply put us at the heart of the industry for Innovation and NPD.

The entire plant was shoe horned into the factory in Halesowen producing pie tins, muffin trays, cake tins and special shaped pressings.
