Logicool celebrates 10 years

Just back from the races: Karl Richardson celebrates Logicool’s 10 years with customer services director Gill Richardson (right) and one of the company’s valued clients Sally Pinnick

UK: Derbyshire-based air conditioning distributor Logicool is celebrating its 10th anniversary with a series of customer and staff events.

Incorporated in September 2008, at the height of the recession and with an initial investment of under £5,000, Logicool has grown into a £6.5m turnover business with 15 staff.

“The last 10 years have seen us witness numerous challenges and experience unforgettable high points that have made us what we are today,” commented managing director Karl Richardson. “The business retains a strong ethos based on values which promote respect, standards and teamwork throughout our involvement in the supply chain.”

With a programme of events throughout the rest of this year and into 2019, the celebrations started last week with a day out for over 80 guests at Southwell Racecourse.

Looking back, Karl Richardson said: “10 years ago it gave me a lot of pleasure to receive an order for a 2.5kW wall mounted system. That still exists today and I always correct staff or clients when I hear the words “its only a small wall mount” or “I know its only a small order but….”. No order is a small order. Every order that Logicool have received from 2008 to 2018 is an achievement that we are proud of.”
