& Brown Wallcoverings
The Graham & Brown product portfolio is divided into four very distinctive brands: 'Super Fresco', 'Fabric Effect', 'Premier Vinyl' and 'LLB', a collection exclusively designed by Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen. Two friends, Harold Graham and Henry Brown founded the company in 1946. With experience in the wallpaper industry, they set up their own business in the front room of Henry's home, purchased a local factory site, India Mill, and started manufacturing surface printed wallpaper. From humble beginnings Graham & Brown now employs over 500 people and has sales and marketing teams based in the UK, UISA, EIRE, France, Holland and Poland. The company continues to invest heavily in design, marketing, advertising, machinery and in building solid long-term partnerships with suppliers and customers. Today, they see the most important elements in this success as the dedication of their employees and a great team spirit.
Graham and Brown have invested significantly in the Shuttleworth Mead Business Park, with a dedicated hi-tech warehouse and distribution outlet covering 146,000 sq. ft - enough room to fit in 20 semi-detached houses! In order to provide a service to the local community, a dedicated factory outlet has been incorporated into the building creating several much-needed new jobs locally.
Managing Director of Ribble Industrial Estates Ltd, Ken Ingham welcomes the investment made by Graham and Brown and said "Graham and Brown have been able to take advantage of the excellent location of the Shuttleworth Mead Business Park and obtained a prime site due to their very early interest in the scheme. I am sure that their business will continue to expand and grow over the coming years thanks to this investment and we look forward to working closely with the company in the future."

Tankers Massey Tankers is a growing and innovative company formed in 1994. Drawing on many years experience, many of the personnel came from the long established Milk Marketing Board, they have supplied road tankers for the milk and edible products industry since their creation. Long time customers include Express Dairies and an expansion in their range to include fuel tankers has resulted in contracts from companies whose end users include British Airways, Tarmac and Jarvis Construction. The successful development of the company over the last six years has lead to this relocation to a prestigious new site with a building tailored to their requirements. Managing director Mr Keith Brown says, "The new factory will certainly provide staff with a better working environment. We will have more floor space and an ideal layout with improved equipment. The access to the building and to the motorway network will be much improved and we will be positioned to recruit skilled personnel from a wider catchment area. These factors will improve our manufacturing efficiency and ensure that we continue to offer a competitive, quality service as orders increase." "The financial support provided by Burnley's 'Unlocking
Investment Programme' has allowed us to choose a building and equipment
that enable us to maintain our competitiveness and will lead to the creation
of twenty new jobs. We are delighted to have the councils continuing support
in our relocation and have found it a great help during this challenging
period in Massey Tankers development," said Keith Brown.
Occupying 2,500 sq ft of space, constructed by local builders Barnfield Construction Ltd, they have relocated from Smallshaw Industrial Estate in Burnley and are settling into prestigious new premises on Ribble Industrial Estates Ltd, flagship Business Park, Shuttleworth Mead. The move affords the company, established since 1981, a modern purpose built facility and improved access to the motorway network. The joint Managing Directors, Steve Bancroft and Geoff Baron, first joined the company 20 years ago and took over the running of the firm in May last year. Assisted by a grant from Burnley Council's Economic Development Unit to assist in their relocation, the move has enabled them to restructure their business. Director Geoff Baron said "Whilst wanting to remain in the area, this new unit is greatly superior to our old premises and is vital to our plans for growth. Such a modern and efficient facility on a high profile site allows us to present an image that matches our high quality of service. We pride ourselves on our service and our ability to deliver components quickly and at short notice, our relocation here offers excellent access to the motorway network to facilitate this. The speed with which we can now serve East Lancashire is leading to an expansion of our customer base and the growth of Pendle Industrial Services Ltd. The financial support provided by Burnley's Economic Development Unit has greatly assisted us at this challenging time of development and it is reassuring to know that the Council's Shuttleworth Mead support team is available to provide advice and assistance." The Directors and staff at Pendle Industrial Services Ltd are looking forward to the future and enjoying their new working environment at Shuttleworth Mead Business Park.
