TM Machinery Sales Ltd is continuing its rapid expansion after moving all operations to larger premises in Leicester.

The two-storey building contains more storage space for machines, a larger parts warehouse, a bigger area for machine repair, plus greater office space.

Sales co-ordinator Matthew Pearce said: ‘Our distribution, storage and repair facilities used to be some distance from head office. Now that we have consolidated everything under one roof it will provide room for us to grow and take a greater share of the UK woodworking machinery market.’

The company, the UK agent for Striebig vertical panel saws, Timesavers- Sandingmaster wide-belt sanders and Al-Ko mobile dust extraction units, started in 1997 and now has 11 staff, including six engineers covering the UK. It has plans for further expansion.
