Firm moves into £2m headquarters

A TYRONE uniform manufacturer, whose clients include EasyJet and the National Ambulance Service of Ireland, has opened a new £2m headquarters just outside Dungannon.

Tailored Image’s new 60,000 sq. ft HQ is located at the Granville Industrial Estate, just five miles from the company’s former base at the Linen Green, Moygashel.

The move brings all of the firm’s warehouse and office staff under the same roof for the first time in many years.

Managing director, Bernard Birt, said, “This is another important landmark in our roadmap as a business and it is no accident that comes so quickly after celebrating the success of 25 years in business.

“This relocation formed an integral part of our ‘Imagine 28’ business plan, which has been focused around expanding our capabilities and advancing the ‘managed services’ element of our operation, which services contracts with a minimum of 2,000 wearers.”

Tailored Image was established in 1998 and since then has committed to the provision of bespoke uniform solutions for a variety of sectors, including corporate, transport, emergency services, retail and hospitality.

The firm’s client list includes budget airline easyJet, transport companies Go-Ahead, Bus Éireann, Dublin Bus and Translink, a suite of hotel venues, including the Clayton and InterContinental Groups as well as banking institutions like Danske, Permanent TSB, EBS and AIB.

The company claims that its Northern premises provides the ‘ideal base’ for customers across Ireland and Great Britain, allowing unfettered access across both markets.
