OREGON RELEASES YEAR END FIGURES

Oregon Timber Frame Ltd has released its trading results for the year to 31st December 2016.
Turnover for the year at £21.7m was up 7% on the record turnover in 2015 and pretax profit was maintained at £1.9m despite the adverse effect of Sterling’s depreciation following the Brexit referendum.
The current year’s profit is being affected by significant material price increases, but sales continue to be strong.
Joint Managing Director, Kenny Dunkley commented:
“The Company has increased its orderbook and has also expanded its client base during the current year. Housing demand remains positive but resources on site are increasingly scarce. This is an industry-wide issue and in order to help address this, we have been the first Company in the UK to recruit and train timber frame erector apprentices in conjunction with CITB and South Lanarkshire College. There are currently 7 apprentices out of a total workforce of 138.”
The recent appointment of Neil Fitzsimmons is expected to strengthen the strategic development of the Company as it plans controlled growth while seeking to maintain dependable service levels to clients.
