Warkup strengthening presence in outdoor sector

Following the launch of their 'Down-to-Earth' range of outdoor pig equipment at the recently-held Pig and Poultry Fair, East Yorkshire pig buildings manufacturer AM Warkup has sent out quotations to the value of more than £1/2 million.

"We really had no idea just how large and vibrant this sector is," says Warkup's Nick MacIvor who adds that not only was there a high level of interest in the basic sow, weaner and farrowing accommodation, but also in a number of other related products including an outdoor feeder that eliminates wastage and a 'tent' that has a whole host of uses.

Looking to the future, Mr MacIvor says that while the 'Meat Speed' range of buildings and equipment will continue to be the company's core business, there is no doubt that the company's presence in the outdoor sector will continue to make itself felt.
