Bristol property firm on course for record year following English Heritage win

Following a string of high-profile client acquisitions and partnerships, directors at Bristol-based Almeda are anticipating record sales for its latest financial year.

The company recently won a contract with English Heritage, where it will be delivering mechanical and engineering maintenance to 23 sites cared for by the organisation, including the coastal castles of Pendennis, Tintagel Castle and Dartmouth Castle.

Almeda has also partnered with several educational establishments to help support and develop students across the south west.

As part of its on-going strategy to offer energy efficiency ideas to its customers, Almeda has united with client Arnolfini and UWE Energy Efficiency to conduct energy audits through UWE’s Architecture and the Built Environment Department.

The audit will be conducted by Energy Management and Performance Evaluation students at UWE, enabling them to develop the acquired skills to manage technical evaluations of buildings and facilities.

Almeda is also working in association with Plymouth University to support undergraduate students by developing their entrepreneurial and business skills. The Almeda team is working closely with students through its marketing department. Students will investigate Almeda’s social presence, with the aim to create a report and video presentation at the end of the project.

Brady George, Managing Director of Almeda, comments: “English Heritage is a prestigious account and we are excited to have the opportunity to work alongside an organisation that shares our values and to help them achieve their environmental and efficiency goals moving forwards.

“We have also forged several rewarding partnerships with universities. We are passionate about supporting the next generation and helping them to acquire crucial business skills as well as an understanding about personal and corporate responsibility for the environment.

Brady concludes: “I would like to thank all of the Almeda staff for their continued efforts with existing clients and new accounts; and their enthusiasm to get involved in our partnerships.”
