Yorkshire construction group invests in North East for regional expansion

A Yorkshire construction group has announced that it is investing in the North East as it creates new jobs and expands its operations.

GMI Construction Group (GMI), based in Leeds, is investing in the North East by expanding its operations and creating employment as part of its ongoing strategic growth plans.

The company will establish a more permanent presence in the region by securing office space in the Tees Valley and the possibility of a second office with a location more central to the whole region.

Lee Powell, divisional managing director for GMI Construction, said: “We have identified a potential pipeline of commercial and public sector projects in the North East worth in excess of £360m and are committed to making a success of our expansion into the region.

“Since GMI was formed, it has grown to become a well-established, successful building and construction services company with a track record of delivering award-winning projects.

“We are confident we will bring the expertise and experience of the projects we already deliver already across the North and the Midlands to our clients here in the North East.”
