As the sole UK and Republic of Ireland agent for the Victor range of CNC machine tools, GM Group has recently extended its warehousing facilities in Oldham, Greater Manchester to support the growth the business is witnessing. The new facility now boasts warehousing space of over 30,000sq/ft2.
The brand new showroom space has been created for the Victor range of machine tools as well as a selection of other used modern CNC & Conventional equipment. The ultra modern factory incorporates a training area, new open plan office facilities, new reception area and meeting rooms.
GM Director Nicola Howard says: “We are rapidly growing our footprint in the new and used machine tool sector and the additional space will underpin our exciting growth plans. From a customer service perspective, this will enable us to further reduce lead times with the ability to hold more new and used stock machines. Additionally, customers will be able to visit the new showroom to witness demonstrations of the very latest machine tool technology on the market. The new extension will be serviced by a brand new 21.5 metre span 20 tonne Street overhead crane with a distance of over 9.8 metres under the hook which enables the efficient handling of all types of machine tools.”
“We will also be increasing the already extensive spares and service area to ensure complete availability of all Victor spare parts and ancillary equipment – bolstering our already outstanding reputation for customer service. With a training area and meeting rooms, the new investment will certainly highlight our ongoing commitment to customer service and support. To further emphasise our commitment to supporting clients, we will be expanding our team and streamlining operational structures.
“The investment we believe will deliver the most impressive machine tool facility in the region, providing a comfortable and welcoming environment for both staff and customers. Upon completion of the project it is our intention to host an Open House event where we will showcase the very latest products in the Victor machine tool range.” concludes Nicola.
