£4.7m worth of beer tokens!

Construction and fit-out specialist Medlock FRB Ltd has won business totalling £4.7million with national pub chains Greene King and JD Wetherspoon and regional operator Joseph Holt.

The Greengate Street, Oldham, firm has secured five projects across the North-West, Yorkshire and Scotland, ranging in value from £500,000 to £1.5 million.

Medlock has been commissioned by Greene King to build and fit out two Hungry Horse venues, one on the site of the former Royal Ordnance factory at Buckshaw Village, Chorley, and the other on the outskirts of Sheffield.

Medlock is due to complete the work in December and next February respectively.

The firm has previously completed Hungry Horse projects in Rochdale, St Helens, Cleveleys, Wallsend on Tyneside and Sheffield.

Medlock has completed its first project for JD Wetherspoon, converting units at the Rivergate shopping centre at Irvine, Ayrshire, into the Auld Brig pub.

This month Medlock begins the conversion and fit-out of a former cinema in Morley, near Leeds, for JD Wetherspoon.

The pub, to be called The Picture House, will be completed in November.

Joseph Holt has awarded Medlock a contract to build and fit-out a new pub/restaurant at an £8million retail development in Warrington.

Medlock will complete the contract, on the site of the former Fordton leisure centre, in October.
