Yorkshire exhibition specialist set for growth with five-figure investment

A Yorkshire exhibition stand firm has revealed growth plans after securing a five-figure investment from UKSE.

The Expo People, established in 2013, designs and builds exhibition stands for business in the UK and further afield.

The Sheffield-based company’s client base spans the US and Europe, and the investment will allow the business to expand its team and its premises.

Founder and managing director of Expo, Paul Tomes, said: “This is a really exciting time for The Expo People, our latest portfolio of international clients show that our positive, friendly culture is what our clients want and what they were potentially missing in the past.

“2019 was a significant year for us, with record turnover, and a growing number of projects both here in the UK and abroad.

“However, with demand increasing year on year we are now in a position where we need to expand both our premises and our workforce.

“The investment from UKSE will enable us to commit to a long-term lease deal on a new site that will better serve the needs of our growing team and client base.”

Alan Stanley, regional executive at UKSE added: “This is a great success story, The Expo people has an excellent work ethos and clear ambition for growth.

“We are delighted to be investing in a local business that is creating job opportunities and can’t wait to see them further expand their offering both here in the UK and abroad.

“Their achievements to date demonstrate the role that a good distribution hub location can have in securing international success.”
