“Our strategic investment in Corby will assist and enable continued business growth; supporting the UK economy and provide continued job security for our 320 workers nationwide; as a socially responsible family business, it was very important to us that key local partners and suppliers worked on this project with us,” said Barry Davies, Oakland International managing director.
