Made in the Midlands gets neighbours talking

By Amvar Handling Solutions Ltd
schedule6th Mar 12

To end a positive year for both companies; two 'Made in the

Midlands' members have struck up a mutually beneficial trading

relationship. Proving the ethos of made in the midlands the two

companies met at the MIM awards this autumn whilst on

neighbouring exhibition stands. Mason Metals recycle ferrous and

non ferrous metals and Amvar Handling Solutions

Since then Masons have bought a fork lift truck from Amvar; and

Amvar has recycled approx 10 redundant trucks along with various

scrap components and batteries through Masons.

Neil Woodall said "Amvar is very close to us geographically but the

two businesses weren't talking. Our membership brought us

together and has provided business opportunities for both of us! As

well as buying the truck Malcolm is putting together

quotes for servicing and we've bought other warehouse

consumables from him since. For us this is why we pay our

subscription - hopefully we can continue to build similar

relationships with other members!".

Malcolm Mitchell Amvars MD recalls .......

"What a great way to meet new customers! Since we joined MIM, one of the main benefits we have found is how much

easier it is to talk to like-minded business owners. Mason Metals actually approached us in the first instance and they

are a pleasure to deal with. We have also struck up similar relationships with other MIM members and we hope this

continues in the long term interest of doing genuine ‘local’ business."

Both companies plan to take stands again at the next MIM exhibition in Spring 2012.
