Geest’s chairman, Ian Menzies-Gow, told Ananova: “These are excellent facilities, which if we had built from scratch would have cost us a great deal more money.
“The location of the large Tinsley site is particularly attractive as we shall benefit from its proximity to our other manufacturing sites in Lincolnshire.”
Taking into account this purchase, Geest’s total capital expenditure is now expected to exceed £70m for 2001.
