Thompsons to expand production to meet record demand19 May 2014

Tipper bodybuilder Thompsons is to invest in additional production facilities to enable it to boost capacity by 25%.

The company says a record order book has prompted the investment and it will either extend one of its two Blackburn factories or build a new factory nearby.

Feasibility studies have been carried out and the final decision will be made in the next few weeks, with production beginning at the site within six months.

Thompsons has three factories in Croydon, two in Blackburn (pictured), and it owns Charlton Bodies in Dover.
