It is always satisfying when paths cross and you come across young people who stand out and you follow their journey as their career progresses.

Such is the story of a young man, named Sam Lewis (now twenty-five) who first came to the attention of Shufflebottom’s Project Manager, Steven Sharp, when Sam was on his first placement as a trainee Quantity Surveyor.

On Friday, 12th August, Shufflebottom staff enjoyed a fabulous fun day away from the factory and offices at Cross Hands and ventured west!

On a bright and beautiful day, over 50 of us – almost two-thirds of our workforce – boarded two bright and beautiful yellow coaches courtesy of Jones International Coaches from nearby Llandeilo and set off for award-winning Heatherton World of Activities, near Tenby, in our neighbouring county of Pembrokeshire.

The Rural & Industrial Design and Building Association (RIDBA) is the recognised trade association for the modern agricultural and industrial buildings’ industry.

At Shufflebottom, we’re always delighted to hear of our customers’ success and growth and to be part of that growth ourselves physically on the ground. Even more satisfying, is when we’re called upon time and time again to deliver our steel-framed buildings for a satisfied customer. One such customer is Smart Systems headquartered at Yatton, Bristol.

National Manufacturing Day on 7th July will be an exciting day for us here at Shufflebottom. Along with a diverse range of manufacturers right across the UK, and one of four in Wales, this specially designated day will give us the opportunity to showcase our business to the local community.

What’s exciting about being a company that manufactures structural steel and steel-framed buildings across the industrial, commercial and agricultural sectors is that Shufflebottom comes across a diverse range of interesting businesses where people are inventing, making and selling the most wonderful things.

Shufflebottom is a proud, Welsh manufacturing company based in Cross Hands, south-west Wales. We are but one of a diverse range of manufacturers who call Wales their home. Whether it’s steel (such as us), electronic, chemical, fabric or food companies whose products are Made in Wales, each has its own distinctive vision and ambition for improved performance and growth now, and in the future.
