Interiors firm revenue soars 75% to £7m in 12 months

INDPENDENT fit-out and refurbishment specialist Brown & Bancroft Interiors, based in Bolton, has achieved impressive levels of growth during the last 12 months, with annual turnover increasing 75% from £4m to £7m.

Supported by Royal Bank of Scotland, the company’s growth follows work on a string of projects for high profile clients including Centrica, North West Ambulance Service, Standard Life, Manchester Chamber of Commerce and Ernst & Young.

Forecasts for 2016 estimate that growth will continue on its rapid incline with turnover expected to reach in the region of £10m.

Established in September 2013 by directors Paul Brown, Jill Bancroft and Neil Fidler, Brown & Bancroft has grown rapidly since its inception.  The company specialises in the fit out and refurbishment of commercial space for companies in the corporate, retail, leisure, health and higher education industry.

To date Brown & Bancroft has worked on in excess of 30 different contracts and delivered more than 400,000sq ft of space to its clients including schemes in some of Manchester’s most iconic buildings.

Jill Bancroft, director of Brown & Bancroft said: “We are thrilled with the success we have achieved during the last two years.

“Before setting up Brown & Bancroft, we listened carefully to key contacts within the industry to ensure that the service we provide meets the demands and expectations of the market.

“I think that this, along with the focus we have put into establishing and retaining a first class team of people, has been key to our success.

“RBS has been supportive of our business since day one and its funding has enabled us to get the company off to a flying start.”

Neil Marshall, relationship director at RBS said: “Brown & Bancroft has gone from strength to strength during the last 12 months and the company’s achievements speak for themselves.

“To go from a standing start to achieving annual turnover of £7m in two years is no mean feat in this industry and I am really pleased that we have been able to support Paul, Jill and Neil with their aspirations for the company.”
