KES Group is to invest in a new multi-million pound, purpose built, manufacturing facility at Strabane Business Park.
We have purchased circa 3.5 acres of land on the Invest Northern Ireland owned Business Park. This land is to accommodate the first phase of development.
Conor McCrossan, Managing Director, KES Group said: “This is a very exciting time for our company. This new manufacturing facility at Strabane Business Park will be where we design, manufacture and develop our innovative products.
Providing a turnkey solution is integral to our business strategy. Each SmartBuild is bespoke in nature and designed to suit individual customer’s needs. Our Energi division operates a class leading service supplying packaged plantrooms to some of the most prestigious commercial contracts throughout the UK and Ireland.
We approached Invest NI when it became apparent that our current facilities where no longer suitable due to the increase in demand. Invest NI proposed Strabane Business Park as an option, and due to the location and infrastructure available it was in our best interests to invest in this area.
Invest NI have been a great support and any advice we have received from them has made a great difference. We have been able to expand our team, grow our business and now we have the confidence to invest in our new state of the art factory.
Des Gartland, North West Regional Office Manager said: “This new 40,000 sqft factory is a significant investment by KES Group and will be a fantastic asset to Strabane and the surrounding areas.”
“Working with companies as a business partner is a key strand to our Business Strategy. Our relationship with KES Group is a real example of this. We have been working closely with KES Group this past few years and have really got to know Conor and his fantastic team.
“It’s great to see the company grow and is the second company to invest in the Park in the last 12 months, we are delighted we have been able to provide the land they needed to make this next growth step.”
