A Falkirk based business is celebrating a significant milestone; employing its 100th staff member – only six years since launch.
Insurance reinstatement contractor; Edinmore Contracts is continuing to go from strength to strength, almost doubling its workforce in the past year and increasing its fleet of vans on the road to an impressive 65.
The latest addition to the team will go a long way to helping the Carronshore-based company achieve its goal to be the contractor of choice by insurers, with the focus very much on developing the business and indeed growing the team.
Director Clarke Faichnie said:
“To have reached one hundred employees is for us, a momentous milestone. We have gone from a two-strong team starting on mainly maintenance work to one hundred skilled and specialist staff offering a one stop service for building repairs and restoration services to the insurance industry.
“It is a great feeling being able to employ people and know that you’re doing something for your local community, and we’re all looking forward to a successful future in Falkirk.”
Edinmore has been supported throughout the process by Falkirk for Business, who provided valuable start up advice and support. Business Growth Advisor Dorothy Henke has been following their success over the years, and is delighted to see a home grown company lead the way in its field.
Speaking today Dorothy said:
“It is very rewarding for us to see a business idea like Edinmore Contracts come to fruition. From a team of two to one hundred employees in such a short space of time is testament to their hard work and innovation. It also highlights the positive success stories coming out of the Falkirk area and what a great place it is to do business.
“By nurturing small businesses and creating a supportive business environment, we are succeeding in diversifying and securing the long term sustainability of the local economy.”
