Laser Quantum’s continual profit growth leads to further global expansion

Date Announced: 09 Sep 2015

Stockport, England: As Laser Quantum ends another successful financial year, plans are underway to expand our facilities in both the UK and the USA. Our sales growth has led to a requirement for further production capacity and an increase in staff numbers: at the UK headquarters, we have acquired an additional building, increasing the number of buildings on this site to four, and in the USA, the LQI team has expanded into a new building three times larger than the existing site to accommodate the recent increases in staff numbers.

Dr. Lawrie Gloster, CEO of Laser Quantum, said ‘The expansion at our headquarters in Stockport is a positive step, driving up our manufacturing capacity to meet our customers’ demand, and also helping us to deliver our ambitious R+D programmes.’

Barney Mitchell, Vice-President of Laser Quantum Inc. (USA), said ‘As our presence in the US market continues its rapid growth, we continue our drive to provide an unsurpassed level of support to our American customers. Our new premises in Silicon Valley include a complete service facility, mirroring the capabilities of our UK service hub. Along with the addition of several highly technical new recruits to our US sales, service and customer support teams, this allows Laser Quantum Inc. to offer the North American market the fantastic customer experience upon which our global brand is built. This is an exciting time for Laser Quantum.’

Laser Quantum is always looking to develop and increase its capabilities by hiring experienced and knowledgeable staff to deliver innovative laser technologies to suit our customer needs.
