An award-winning indoor pool company is making waves in Bollington, after relocating its headquarters and showroom to the town, as local MP, David Rutley, heard on a recent visit.
David met with staff and management from the 25-strong team at Portrait Pools in its new purpose-designed showroom on Store Street. He learned how the company hopes its presence in Bollington will drive further investment in the town, helping to attract customers and professional suppliers, and promote additional job opportunities for local residents. In addition to product displays, the new, state-of-the-art showroom has facilities for interior designers and architects, and is the only one of its type in the country.
Portrait Pools has been in operation for 28 years, and was formerly based in Southport, but relocated to Bollington in September. The decision to move was prompted, in part, because many of its clients live in Cheshire East, and the company wanted to be closer to them. As well as pools for private purchase, the company designs and installs public pools.
Speaking after his visit, David said, “It was good to meet with the team at Portrait Pools, and to learn more about the company’s achievements over the past year. It is positive news for Bollington to have this well-established business set up its headquarters here, helping to bring more visitors to the town and create employment opportunities for local residents. I wish the company continued success in the months ahead.”
