Back around the time when punk rock was on its way out and Margaret Thatcher was on her way in, a lot of digging on building sites was still done by hand, excavators were quite expensive and too big to fit through a standard doorway. The founder who ran a family engineering firm in Wales recognised the potential and reckoned that if you could make a really small and very portable digger at the right price, small builders would que up to buy them. The founder who had previously worked as a designer with plant manufacturer Hymac was right in 1981 together with his three brothers the founder launched a business which he called Powerfab to make and distribute these machines the concept took off not just in the UK but around the world. Selling machines to diverse markets from banana plantations to nuclear power plants the firm grew and in its heyday employed 50 people before being sold and discontinued in 2005. The Powerfab name suddenly moribund became available and the founder’s son decided to re-register it and revive the brand. With new fire in the dragons belly in the form of innovations he manufactured and marketed excavators and loaders in the UK, Europe and the USA. Now the time has come to hand the company on to an organisation with more resources to take advantage of high growth rate potential. Seeking serious offers only.
