Expanding tool materials supplier for
Meridian Centre Louth

Euro-Forme Supplies Limited, an expanding specialist tool making materials distributor supplying the packaging industry, has moved into brand new premises at the Meridian Centre, on Louth's Fairfield Industrial Estate.

The company was formed ten years ago and now has a £.9 million turnover. It employs five people and had outgrown its split site premises on the town's North Trading Estate and nearby Belvoir Way.

"The move to the Meridian Centre allows us to consolidate and at the same time expand the business all under one roof," said Don Limpkin, Euro-Forme Supplies managing director. The company which exports more than a quarter of its products to Scandinavia, South Africa, LJSA Canada and Asia, has taken a lease of 5,000 sq ft.

The £1 million Meridian Centre has been developed by Lincoln based Lindsey Securities and is aimed at kick-starting a further £5 million industrial development programme at the expanding Fairfield Industrial Estate.

"We are delighted to welcome Euro-Forme Supplies into The Meridian Centre and believe other enterprises will soon follow opening up new commercial and job creation opportunities in the north east of the county,' said Lindsey Securities director, Robin Taylor.

"The 20,000 sq ft centre is possibly the largest speculative industrial scheme the Louth area has ever seen and provides a further 6 units ranging from 2,500 sq ft. These are earmarked for light and general industrial use and storage, wholesale and distribution. We currently have serious interest in three other units," said Daniel Race, partner at Hodgson Elkington, chartered surveyors, who are agents for the scheme.

The Meridian Centre, situated an Belvoir Way on the extension to the Fairfield Industrial Estate is a joint initiative between Lindsey Securities and the East Midlands Development Agency, EMDA, the Government sponsored regeneration agency.
