3 COMPANY PROFILE ORDER TODAY, DELIVER TOMORROW Bluebird Fixings was formed in August 1988 by the four directors of the business. The aim, at the time, was to produce for sale a new concept for connecting new walls to existing buildings at right angles, such as garage extensions. This item would be called the Bluebird Screwtie. Since the outset, the product range has been enlarged and now includes door cramps, as well as wire balloons to prevent birds from nesting and/or falling down chimneys, thus removing the hazard of carbon monoxide poisoning to occupants of the house and subsequently expensive repairs. These have complemented other refurbishment items and roofing products already being produced. Celebrating 15 years in business this year, Bluebird Fixings has enjoyed continued growth, extending its product range and continuing to serve an ever increasing customer base within the construction and allied industries. Today, the Company has agents in Northern Ireland and Scotland and a full sales infrastructure for England and Wales. The Company s office is based in Lincoln. Peter Hodder, Managing Director of Bluebird, comments: In the past two years we have extended our premises in Lincoln twice by adding two new bays and of course installing machinery to suit. Through these developments, we are continuing to improve our service to all customers. He continues: Bluebird Fixings has national contracts with all of the large builders merchants groups and most independent merchants as far apart as Jersey, Guernsey, John O Groats and the Isle of Man. In fact our proud boast is Order today, delivery tomorrow. 1
