About us
Brian Mee formed the company in
1977 along with his wife June. Brian craved a different
challenge after working at Pretty Polly and several dyehouses in
the Nottinghamshire and Leicestershire areas.
In 1980, Brian's 2 sons Ian and
Andrew joined the business working in the dyehouse and winding
departments respectively. Andrew's unique ability to strip and
repair machinery soon led to him taking over the maintance of
the plant. In 1985, Ian's wife Jackie and Andrew's wife Sue both joined
the business. Ian and Andrew became equal share holders
and the business moved to its current location on Hamilton road.
In due course, Brian's 2 younger sons also joined the business,
James in 1990 and Jonathan in 1994. Father and sons all working
together.
On 24th November 1995, Brian
passed away at the age of 56yrs. It was a sad loss of a well
respected man. Many people commented on what a character he was,
confirming what we already knew. One guy said very recently,
that when he retires, he will write a book of his own exploits
in the textile industry and Brian would feature in over half of
it.
Thanks to a loyal customer, supplier and
staff base, Andrew's knowledge of maintenance and yarn
processing and Ian's yarn dyeing and unique management style
ensured that, along with a strong work ethic and help from
Jackie and June, the business still thrives today.
