The business was originally formed by Rob Midgley in September 1998 and incorporated in October 2002, following his resignation from the family company, after it was sold, where he was the Financial Director for 13 years.

This business had grown from a start-up to a £22.5 million turnover company at the time of its sale 15 years later. During this time the company remained profitable and cashflow positive, with borrowing used only for major capital expenditure.
