Avanti Conveyors stays local and expands in High Peak
We are pleased to announce the expansion of the business into new, additional factory premises in the town of Glossop.
Glossop was once a busy hub for cotton
and paper production. In 1887 Jubilee Mill opened to house Olive and
Partington’s Turnlee Paper Mill. The original mill closed in the 1960s and the
site was then used by a local textile business.
The new site is now home to several
assembly functions for Avanti Conveyors who are continuing the tradition of
paper-related production at Jubilee Mill as a business that designs and
manufactures machinery and software for the paper packaging industry.
Avanti Conveyors has already operated
from several smaller commercial units in High Peak for 35 years and are keen to
stay local and expand some of their operations into this 20,000 sq.ft. unit in
Glossop.
Simon Mander, Managing Director of
Avanti Conveyors commented: “The move to Glossop allows us the scope to
increase the production area whilst retaining our local skilled employees.”
