The Company was formed in 1979, trading in small
precision engineering components out of a factory of some 1000
square feet.
After six months of trading the scale of the business increased necessitating
the acquisition of further premises, also of 1000 square feet.
Over the next 18 months and against the trend, the business became a Limited
Company and moved into a 6000 square foot workshop. The new move enabled
the Company to acquire larger plant and machinery and offer a better service
to it's existing customers, as well as winning the support of a great number
of new customers well known in the National and International market place.
All along the way Afon was becoming a well known and trusted name. To meet
the increased demand Mr. A. Beaujean continued the further advancement
of Afon by moving the whole Company, to a well situated, well laid out
20,000 square foot factory thereby further increasing capacity. |

This
move was undertaken during April / May 1992. In August of 1995
Afon was able to acquire a further 5,000
square feet, thus increasing it's overall work area to more than
25,000 square feet.
Afon, a family firm, has achieved to date a great deal and are pleased
to announce that with the continued investment into Afon, the Company have
now moved into their purpose built factory with an area of 37,000 square
feet, with the possibility of further expansion. The factory is situated
in the Swansea area on a new Trading Estate.
This has enabled Afon to invest in the most up to date plant and machinery
and a perusal of the attached Plant Capacity Schedule will give an insight
into Afon's capabilities. |
