A visit to a growing business with its UK HQ in Bedford
Yesterday I continued my ongoing series of visits to local employers with a visit to Lindström Ltd, whose UK Headquarters and main service centre are here in Bedford, in the Elms Farm Industrial Estate in Goldington. Lindström provide workwear (i.e. uniforms, overalls etc) and associated services (e.g. laundry) to companies all over the UK. It was interesting to see their impressive operation in action, and I was keen to stress that I want to support them to continue to prosper and provide employment here in Bedford.
Business Unit Manager Soresh Meeda explained to me that, thanks to their processes, it is near-impossible for them to lose something. With thousands of garments handled every week that's quite a claim, and enough to make anyone who's ever lost a sock in the wash very jealous!
