Autozone assistance helps H T Brigham promote themselves to a global audience
26/06/2008, Birmingham, UK:
A West Midlands engineering company, that began life making car components in a garden shed in 1947 is forging ahead into new global markets with Autozone's assistance.
H T Brigham, which still trades under the name of its founder Hugh Terrance Brigham, has gained ten new customers over the last 12 months and is looking forward to a boost in its annual turnover following re-branding. Commercial Sales Director Mike Pilkington is sure that the late Mr Brigham would be proud to see the business he began over 60 years ago now trading worldwide.
The company has grown from a one-man band to a thriving business centrally situated in Coleshill, specialising in the manufacture of small to medium sized metal pressings in high volume from materials including mild steel, stainless steel, aluminium and brass. They have diversified into the construction and gas appliance industries amongst others, and although business hasn't always been easy to find, with the ongoing support from Accelerate, the business support agency for automotive component suppliers in the West Midlands, H T Brigham are successfully striving ahead in modern, demanding times.
Mr Pilkington said: "Accelerate introduced us to AutoZone - an initiative backed by funding from Advantage West Midlands and the European Regional Development Fund which looks to match capacity in the region with opportunities across Europe - and, thanks to an £8,000 grant, we are able to promote what we do to a new global audience with better publicity, trade shows and trips overseas."
HT Brigham provides a diverse range of industry sectors, worldwide with bespoke presswork solutions. Specialising in the manufacture of small to medium sized metal stampings in high volume, from materials including stainless steel, aluminum and brass, the focus is on using their knowledge, skill base and expertise to manufacture each component to the highest standards and for the lowest possible cost.
