Constant Manufacturing

In 1969, Harry Garlick was told he ‘didn’t have enough money to buy a fish and chip shop’, let alone an aluminium business.

Harry proved them wrong and in 1970 along with son Richard, Constant Aluminium Supplies Ltd was formed. We’re delighted that over 45 years later, lead by new generations of Garlicks, his company still flourishes today.

 

Luckily in the early 70s Richard had met Maggie, and unknowingly to his father who passed away in 1977, the legacy of the company was to continue with their children, Matt Garlick and Emma Gilligan (nee Garlick), now joint Managing Directors.

Matt Garlick

Managing Director

Maggie, formerly a Teacher, was the company’s original ‘sales girl’ and over the years has developed the business alongside husband Richard seeing the offices moving not far from the original building of a small office and warehouse on Greenhaulgh Street, to the current 50,000ft2 plant in Meadowbank Business park, adjacent to the M60. The current premises offer a great location for our logistics team for delivering around the North West & Yorkshire areas.

Richard now sits proudly as Chairman with Maggie as Financial Director, leaving the day-to-day operations with Matt and Emma.

Over time a specific ‘Constant Manufacturing’ division grew, utilising the Group’s growing team of industry trained CAD Engineers, Business Development and Marketing Departments and a suite of skilled shop floor staff from Welders to expert Precision Sheet Metal Workers.
