Galebreaker, manufacturers of agricultural and industrial products, is relocating to the John Dickinson Building, New Mills Industrial Estate, Ledbury, in the summer.

A family-owned and operated company, Galebreaker is a specialist in providing indoor and outdoor fabric technology design solutions to all industries.

It has been steadily expanding its business both in the UK and internationally and, with no additional space available at the company's premises in Mitcheldean, Gloucestershire, the company began to look for a new site two years ago.

The new premises will allow the business to fully embrace its expansion plans, to satisfy its customers demands and to create new business.

Managing director Jeremy Scudamore said: "We have been in Mitcheldean for more than 20 years so, of course, we are sad to leave.

"But our current premises are now wholly inadequate and very cramped. By relocating to much larger premises we can continue to grow."

Mr Scudamore added: "We will safeguard our workforce and we will help to give this company and its employees a very positive future.

"We are all very enthusiastic about relocating and are looking forward to continuing the success of our company in Ledbury."
