Precision Marketing Group's new head office officially opened by new MP and new Mayor of St Edmundsbury

The extensive refurbishment and landmark extension to Precision Marketing Group was officially opened by new MP, Jo Churchill and Mayor, Patrick Chung on Friday, 22nd April 2015.

For their first social engagement since their election, the new MP and new Mayor travelled to the Lamdin Road to officially open the new eco-friendly head office which includes over 400 solar panels and full LED lighting. The opening was attended by a number of senior figures from local businesses as well as representatives from the Suffolk Council, Suffolk Carbon Leaders & Carbon Smart.

Speaking at the event, Jo Churchill hailed the head office as offering ‘benchmark green initiatives within the marketing industry.’ The new Mayor went on to say that 'grant support from local financial companies had already led to the creation of over 20 new jobs within the community.'

The new Bury St Edmunds' building was part of a £2 million investment and took just under 1 year to complete. Matthew Caldwell-Nichols, MD and owner of Precision Marketing Group said ‘We are delighted to welcome the new MP and the new Mayor of Bury St Edmunds to officially open our building and to also showcase and demonstrate the impressive facilities we have here in Lamdin Road. This is a real milestone and will dramatically reduce our carbon footprint and position us as the green leaders within our industry.’

Shortly after the official opening, Jo Churchill and Patrick Chung were taken on a tour around Precision Marketing Group as well as meeting staff. It was a sunny day and they were shown how on that day the entire site was solar powered.//ENDS

Precision Marketing Group is Anglia’s leading marketing services provider employing 100 full and part time staff. Our head office is in Bury St Edmunds and we have sites in St Ives and Watton.

We have recently expanded following significant grant support from Grants4Growth and the Growing Business Fund for our £2 million capital expenditure on new equipment and green initiatives at our new premises.

We are passionately committed to environmental sustainability and our relocation was heavily influenced by the workshops we attended for Suffolk Council, West Suffolk College, Suffolk Carbon Leaders & Carbon Smart.

We have installed 400 solar panels onto our roof and over 2015 we aim to solar power the building and operational machinery. We have replaced all fluorescent tube lighting with LEDs, have upgraded our heating/cooling system. We have smashed the recycling rate compliant with ISO 14001. We have also been awarded the Suffolk Carbon Charter Silver.
