ARMAGH specialist construction supply company SDG has announced sales of £6 million for the year, doubling its turnover in the last 36 months.
The firm, which supplies specialist products to the construction industry, was set up in 1990 and now employs 25 people.
It has supplied products for The Curragh Racecourse, Titanic Exhibition Centre, and the Central Bank of Ireland in Dublin.
SDG has announced a £500,000 investment in a new ‘Stronger Together’ brand, which includes a new website and a new ecommerce platform.
Chief executive Louise Skeath said she company was delighted with the sales figure during the recent economic challenges across the island.
“We are investing more locally, nationally, and internationally working on projects across Ireland and UK, and as far away as Dubai,” she said.
“The business has just added three new staff roles across logistics management, business development for Ireland and currently we are recruiting in partnership with Queens University, all signals of our ambition and vision for growth.
“SDG is focused on achieving even more working with our customers, clients and supply chain. This will include identifying business needs and emerging trends, proposing solutions and delivering operational transformative change to our clients and customers.
“We are already transitioning SDG, looking at opportunities for business growth, exploring new product development opportunities and setting the business up to be Brexit ready.”
She said the company is in the process of recruiting a strategic management analyst to the team, in partnership with Queens University, and this week appointed a business development manager for Ireland to add to the existing sales team and grow its Ireland business focus.
