30th anniversary marked with £30,000 investment
2nd June 2015

County Durham-based Halo Approved fabricator installer BMW Windows is marking its 30th year in business with a £30,000 investment in new, larger premises.

BMW – named after its founders Bent, Murphy and Wilkinson – has added 22% to its turnover in the last three years and the new 11,000 sq ft base near Chester-le-Street will enable the company to sustain its growth and to display its products so that customers can browse them in comfort.
Its current executive team – John and Debbie Jefferson and their sons, John and Andrew – took over the running of the company in 1997-98, with John Snr. leaving his accountancy job to branch out in business alone.

He said: “It's not often that you come across a double glazing company celebrating its 30th year in business. We're proud to have reached this milestone – testament to our hard work, determination and commitment to supplying systems of the highest quality. Our association with Halo and The VEKA UK Group in general stands us in good stead with customers, who realise that we only work with the best.”

Colin Torley, Sales and Marketing Director for The VEKA UK Group added: “It's fantastic to see Halo fabricators and installers overcoming, and now flourishing in the wake of, an economic downturn that held significant repercussions for the home improvement industry.”
