While we are proud of our heritage we are constantly seeking to develop and improve the company. In 2013, Managing Director Raymond Shepherd led a buy-out backed by Nevis Capital. This provided the opportunity for James Ramsay to work closer with the other Nevis Capital owned businesses – find out more about our sister companies.
