Pirtek celebrates opening of expanded site in Waterford
Pirtek has moved its site in Waterford to new, bigger premises at the Six Cross Road Business Park. Containing its Waterford and Cork franchises, it’s a positive move for the company as it seeks to increase its number of maintenance contracts as well as providing an emergency repair service.
To celebrate the opening, there was a competition to win a framed Connacht rugby jersey, which had been signed by player Bundee Aki. The lucky winner was customer Ivan Cummins from Greenstar energy. Situated in the busy business park, there were plenty of people from surrounding companies around to join in with the celebrations. There was also outside seating and nibbles and drinks available for customers popping in to see the new premises.
The specialist industrial piping system company, who manufacture, fit and maintain fluid transfer systems including hydraulic hoses, has over 80 franchises in the UK and 400+ locations worldwide. Founded in Australia in 1980, it has continued to take on franchisees in over 23 countries since.
Pirtek aims to provide the fastest most convenient service available and is available 24/7 to attend urgent jobs, aiming to arrive within one hour of being contacted to minimise disruption and costly downtime for clients.
Greg Cummins, Pirtek Waterford franchisee, said: "While Pirtek’s major line of business is emergency roadside repairs, for which it has a one hour ETA, it has expanded into preventative maintenance contracts, hose testing and industrial hose and fittings".
Pirtek also has a highly successful team in the British Touring Car Championships. Driver Andrew Jordan has taken the crown for the team, clinching one of the most exciting BTCC titles to date in the 2013 season. It’s also had success in the British F4 championship, with junior driver Jamie Caroline dominating the 2017 season and securing a well-deserved win.
