๐ Celebrating 80 Years of Williams Plant Hire ๐
In 1946, George Williams, alongside his father Ernest, began his working life as a builder. From those early beginnings, the business gradually evolved into what would become Williams Plant Hire.
Over the years, the company grew from our original Newtown depot, and in 1985 we were proud to acquire Naylors Plant Hire, opening our Welshpool depot and expanding our reach across the area. What started small continued to develop, branching into more plant hire, road sweepers, and skip hire, adapting to the needs of our customers along the way.
Now, 80 years on, Williams Plant Hire is still going strong. None of this would have been possible without the many employees who have worked with us over the decades, and the thousands of customers who have supported the business and trusted us to be part of their projects.
Weโd like to say a sincere thank you to everyone who has played a part in our journey so far. Weโre incredibly proud of our history and excited to see what the future holds.
Hereโs to the next 80 years! ๐พ
