Plastic Mouldings Northern Ltd appear in the Northern Echo
and the Wear Valley Advertiser
Plastic Mouldings Northern Ltd was recently interviewed by the
Northern Echo’s Head Reporter for an article on the
difficulties facing companies wanting to expand on South Church
Enterprise Park.
The company have faced a very trying time lately applying to
the Council for Industrial Units based on the Industrial Estate with
the hoping of expanding their increasing successful company. The
company are reaching the point where the current premises will simply
not be big enough and more manufacturing space will be required,
however the Council have been unwilling to offer any assistance.
Without any assistance from the Council Plastic Mouldings
Northern Ltd may soon be faced with the difficult decision of
potentially moving production to another area or cutting back
production. The latter option Plastic Mouldings Northern is unwilling
to take as letting down customers old and new is not an avenue they
want to consider.
To date three Industrial Units have come up for sale on the
Industrial Estate and each time they have been awarded to the same
company, a company that has council links.
