Having achieved 150 per cent growth during the pandemic, S Lester Packing Materials is planning to invest £4.5 million to increase production capacity for corrugated boxes, large format, heavy-duty cases and bespoke packaging for clients in the automotive, aerospace, bike manufacturing, mail order and third-party logistics sectors.
“We’ve been in business for nearly 40 years, and during that time we’ve never stood still. However, the last two years have seen us really push forward with our growth plans, investing heavily in our site, technology, and people to create improved capability, capacity, and efficiency,” said Billy Hutchinson, director of Lesters.
“All of these changes mean we are now seen as a trusted supplier and an alternative for larger customers in a world where size and capability really matters. The name and brand change reflect this and brings our innovative design and prototyping facilities to the fore.”
He added: “We don’t just sell boxes…we offer complete, bespoke packaging solutions and are helping to disrupt a marketplace that traditionally has been dominated by two or three big players.”
