About this business
This Swansea business installs and repairs security fencing, gates, rising bollards and barriers for industrial sites, utilities, schools and car parks across South Wales. Trading since 2008, it rents a base in the suburbs and employs eight people, most of them fitters. Turnover has held steady at around £800k, while adjusted EBITDA has climbed from £91k to £110k.
