Home builder looks for local suppliers
A leading home builder for first-time buyers is looking for local suppliers ahead of starting on the final stage of Walsall’s largest regeneration project.
Keepmoat Homes, which was recently granted planning permission for its 407-home development at Goscote Lane, is now looking to engage with local suppliers and contractors ahead of work starting this spring by holding a special event in The Workplace, Leamore on January 11.
The two-hour breakfast event will take place from 8am to 10am.
It will offer local businesses the chance to meet with supply chain managers at Keepmoat Homes and explore the potential business opportunities which the third and final stage of the Goscote Lane Corridor Regeneration Programme will provide.
The event is part of Keepmoat Homes’ commitment to supporting the local economy and community, with the home builder also committed to supporting 14 apprenticeships during the development of the site.
Mike Nolan, land and partnerships director for Keepmoat Homes in the Midlands, said: “We were delighted that the scheme was granted planning approval in November and are excited to start on site this year. At Keepmoat Homes we believe that our developments should support the local community and economy which is why we’re committed to working with local suppliers and contractors.
“I would encourage any businesses which are interested in working with us to attend this event on January 11 and discuss the opportunities further.”
