MG Scaffolding continues to expand

The 2018/19 trading year is proving to be another successful one for MG Scaffolding (Oxford).

The firm has seen much growth after opening its Birmingham operating centre last year, bringing the total number of offices to 3 with Banbury and Cheltenham being the longer
established.

Despite its name, MG has long been active in Birmingham and the Midlands area carrying out many high profile projects in and around the city. Established in 2002, MG has one of the largest stocks of scaffold equipment owned by an independent scaffolding contractor, and over 100 CISRS trained operatives distributed between its 3 branches MG is able to offer any access solution to any size of project over a wide area.

A spokesperson for MG said: “The appointment of Martin Pritchard as our Midlands Area Manager, with 26 years experience and his focus on customer service have seen MG successfully execute many high-profile scaffolding schemes for repeat customers such as Morgan Sindall, Balfour Beatty, Bouygues UK, Torsion Group and many others.”

MG is consequently looking forward to enjoying its best year ever with turnover set to exceed £10M this year.
