What More's £20m. investment in new machinery will boost local economy

What More UK's latest investment has seen it grow its manufacturing capacity with the purchase of 13 injection moulding machines. The company plans to upgrade or replace every machine it owns within four years.

The new machines, five of which have already arrived and been installed at the Altham site, are specifically designed to meet the needs of the organisation.

Tony Grimshaw OBE, Director at What More UK, said: "What More UK is not the sort of company to sit still. In business we deal with crises every day and the worst thing you can do is ignore it. Putting money back into the firm means we'll be stronger in the future. These new machines will give us the ability to respond to changes as and when they occur."

What More UK products are available in all major UK supermarkets, 1,600 independent retailers in the UK, and 75 other countries around the world. The Altham-based produces housewares of all kinds, including storage boxes, around-the-sink items, bakeware and cookware, as well as products for the garden like planters and troughs.
