Mivan reports that it has booked record orders worth more than £100m, with five-star hotels and premium residential developments in London leading the way..

The business is also on target with its strategic growth plan to increase turnover to £100m by 2025 – fivefold growth in four years.

Chief executive John Cunningham, who took over from Brian McConville last year, said: “This strong performance is down to our clear strategy and a really exceptional team across the business and at every level. This has resulted in a high level of repeat business from the UK’s leading developers and contractors. We have a healthy balance sheet, have diversified into a wide range of sectors, and have developed an international reputation for our specialist fitout services.”

“It is great to see so many world-class developments being fitted out with bespoke joinery manufactured in Northern Ireland. As a result, we remain on target with our ambitious growth strategy and will continue to invest to the benefit of our customers and stakeholders.”
