Graphic display specialist Leach has won its largest contract yet, a £2.5m project for the National Museum of Kuwait.

The 18-month long project will involve 20 staff and comes at the end of a year-long project of restructuring, investment and expansion. 

Managing director Richard Leach said: ‘The past 12 months have been incredibly significant for us. We’ve recruited an additional 23 members of staff, formed a new management team, invested over £250,000 in new product development and ploughed a further £750,000 into new technology.’

The firm has also rebranded with three divisions Leach Impact, Leach Inspire and Leach Studio, each serving distinct market sectors.

In the next year it has plans to take on nine more staff, extend its 3000 sqm factory in Huddersfield and, with £250,000 earmarked for development, launch several new products.
