Work is being carried out by Cumbrian building firm Thomas Armstrong and the investment was boosted by a grant from Cumbria Local Enterprise Partnership.<\/p>\n
The turf-cutting was attended by Jim Jackson, deputy chairman of Cumbria LEP; John Mallinson, leader of Carlisle City Council; Councillor Colin Glover; Tony Goddard, Neil McIntyre and Emily Robson, of Kingmoor Park; Angus Hutchinson of Hyde Harrington and Jonathan Tibbits, of Thomas Armstrong.<\/p>\n
Clark Door was represented by Managing Director Andrew Ashley, Chairman Paul Ashley MBE, Operations and Supply Chain Manager Adam Wharton and Engineering Manager Tim Hicks.<\/p>\n
Andrew Ashley said: \u201cI am extremely proud of our workforce, and having been based in Carlisle since 1973, I am pleased that the company has committed its future to the area through this significant investment.<\/span><\/p>\n
\u201cAfter many years in the planning it is great to now be starting our expansion project. We were pleased to make the gesture, taking time out from our busy day to day roles, of sharing the milestone of starting the construction work, with some of the key players who have supported us to make our vision possible. We look forward to completing the construction of this facility, the exciting opportunities ahead and the next chapter in our growth.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
\u201cThe new facility is great news for the company, its many stakeholders including its employees, local supply base and the wider community.\u00a0 It will enable us to offer highly engineered, world class products for multiple applications for buildings in the performing arts, film, TV, distribution warehouses and industry.<\/span><\/p>\n
\u201cClark Door currently sells its products throughout the UK, the Middle and Far East, Europe, North and South America. This investment will provide a foundation for future growth through greater productivity and even better engineered products.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
