My Businesses

Glassprint

Glassprint Ltd was established in 2002 printing on glass products such as; candle glasses, perfume bottles and beer bottles for customers such as Ted Baker and the White Company! They currently have a turnover of £1million per year and over 10 staff members.

This £2.5m deal will allow my original business Supplies For Candles to expand into a well-established glass printing business, providing our customer base with even more choice and personalisation when it comes to their candle and home fragrance collections.

With the acquisition of this new business also comes much needed space, with an additional 20,000 square foot warehouse. The new warehouse means that we can now provide a whole host of new products. In fact, we have over 250 new products on their way over the next few months!

This strategic acquisition will cement Supplies for Candles as the leading candle making supplies company in Europe allowing us to have the largest range of containers, candle holders and much more!

This exciting new opportunity will also provide even more job opportunities for those in the Mexborough area, expanding my team is just as important to me as expanding our premises and product range!

Watch this space!
