Matsuura's existing premises

Leicestershire-based Matsuura Machinery Ltd is planning a significant expansion of its operational capacity, following the purchase of the site adjacent to its existing premises in Coalville.

The additional premises, covering one acre, possesses 11,500ft² of space, and consists of a large showroom, substantial office space, stores and loading bay and will be fully refurbished over the next two years.

Roger Howkins, Matsuura Machinery managing director, said: “This substantial investment is the culmination of our success in supplying automated CNC machine tool solutions to an expanding UK customer base, and reflects our phenomenal success in the additive manufacturing sector.

“This expansion and investment is a sign of our confidence in UK manufacturing, and reflects the current pressure we have for more operational capacity to serve our customers, and also delivers to us more business options as we grow in the future.”
