The Lincolnshire Agricultural Society Impact Group visit Witham Oil & Paint 02 May

We were treated to a very interactive and informative history of the family owned lubricant and paint manufacturing company which has been trading since 1921.

We learnt that they produce uniquely high-quality products at Witham Group to unrivalled industry and environmental standards using their very own designed and commissioned blending operation.

Their customers range from the marine industry and agriculture to road haulage and commercial vehicle workshops. They supply goods to international race circuits, the building trade, plant machinery businesses and pipework specialists and operate throughout the UK and abroad.

They explained how immensely proud they are to have been granted the Royal Warrant to HM The Queen for the products and services they supply to the Royal Estate in Sandringham.

This is all from a local family owned and run business – very impressive!!

A great night had by all filled with humour and knowledge development, thank you to Nigel Bottom, Graham Dawson and Team Witham Group.
