40TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATED
29 October 2012
Preston-based national fluid power product distributor, Tom Parker, has reached a landmark 40th year in business.
The firm was set up by Parker and his late wife Enid in 1972 to market, sell and distribute the products of Swedish pneumatic and hydraulic coupling manufacturer CEJN to the UK and Ireland.
The company’s head office has seen a recent expansion of the warehouse to over 55,000ft2 and presently employs over 65 office, warehouse and workshop staff along with a second branch in Basingstoke, to enable full UK coverage. Still overseen by Parker himself, the business is now managed by sons Richard and Tim Parker at the Preston facility, with Michael Parker based in Basingstoke.
