Finning open Bristol branch

Major investment in South West facility expected to create new local jobs and growth for Finning

FINNING UK and Ireland have invested more than £1 million in a brand new 16,000 square metre branch in Bristol, complete with workshop facilities and additional job opportunities for the local area.

Situated in Portbury’s industrial estate, Finning say the investment marks a vote of confidence in the recovery of the construction market in the South West.

 

The new facility reflects the strong customer demand for Caterpillar products alongside Finning’s repair and maintenance services, and represents a significant long-term local investment in a permanent location within the Bristol area, expanding Finning’s national network of 26 branches and 1,800 employees.

Commenting on the investment, Mark Brealey, Finning’s service operations manager for the South West, said: ‘Bristol is really well placed to service the booming South West construction equipment market. It has a great transport network and is ideal for supporting new and existing customers.

‘We are predicting significant growth opportunities for our customers and believe this will provide a great platform to enhance our customers’ experience, in terms of both the selling and servicing of Caterpillar equipment in the area.

‘The prospect for growth is very exciting and we expect to see future job opportunities across the board, from engineering apprenticeships to sales and office support staff. We have big plans for the branch and the new workshops will ensure we are able to deliver an enhanced repair and maintenance service to customers throughout the region.’
