GGM's Haydock showroom

The organisation, with sites in Colne and Haydock, say they have expanded their team with the appointment of new members of staff throughout the business including in parts, workshop and accounts departments in a bid to support business growth and offer job opportunities in the local area.

The new roles come after what they describe as a busy first quarter for the business which has seen the unveiling of a refurbished showroom in Haydock.

GGM say recent months have seen the launch of three new franchises for themselves. Last year, they announced their appointment as a Honda authorised dealer for the lawn and garden range. They have also taken on the new expanded range of TP Chippers as well as the FSI range of stump cutters.

The business also says they have experienced a "huge uptake" in the recently launched LANTRA accredited training academy, which provides delegates with the skills and knowledge required to safely operate and maintain machinery. All training can be carried out on customers premises, using the equipment that team members will be using on a day-to-day basis or at the dedicated GGM training centre.

Also the business has launched a brand-new website, designed to further enhance the customer experience. GGM say th navigation makes it easier for customers to find products and access services. 

Managing director Chris Gibson said, “While many businesses have struggled over the past 12 months, we are delighted that GGM has continued to thrive. We have done this thanks to our fantastic team and our focus on innovation, always keeping us one step ahead of the game. In addition, we decided to recruit for these roles to help the local job market, as well as to facilitate business growth and our future plans”.
