Hide AdSewtec’s MBO was backed by Leeds-headquartered private equity firm Endless in August 2017. The company’s management team of technical director Gary Day, controls director Karl Conqueror and sales director Paul Johnson led the buyout, after which managing director Mark Cook joined the company.
Mr Cook said: “Our strong order book demonstrates the outstanding reputation that Sewtec has built.”
