I ndustry N ews GYS moves to larger premises SINCE entering the UK market in early 2009, GYS Ltd, the French welding equipment and battery charger manufacturer, has subsequently outgrown its existing premises, and moved to larger premises in October. Although the UK has been in recession for most of the time that GYS has been trading in the country, the company has seen continuous growth across its range of MMA, MIG, TIG, plasma and resistance spot welding, as well as battery charger, starting and booster equipment. GYS took the strategic decision to move now, as the UK economy continues to improve, because of the high level in interest shown in its products from the market. The company markets its products through distributors and now has a growing number of outlets throughout the UK. The new premises, on Tachbrook

Industrial Park, Warwick, incorporate offices to house a growing sales and support team including after sales service, and a demonstration area for distributor training and product testing, as well as a warehouse. Neil Pulsford, UK commercial director, commented: “We entered the UK market with a specific pricing policy for our specialist product range and we have been delighted at the reception GYS products have had from distributors across the

country. We are now able to expand our UK business ahead of schedule.” Mr Pulsford added, “As we continue to expand in the UK, these new facilities will enable us to provide strong commercial and technical support for our distributors and customers.” GYS Ltd – UK Fax: +44 1926 429 764 Email: uk@gys.fr Website: www.gys.fr
