Lovell is hosting a meet the buyer event later this month in a bid to boost its supply chain in West Wales.

The firm wants to hear from contractors covering the region from Swansea to Fishguard, including Mid Wales.

Regional managing director James Duffett said: “Our continuing growth across the region has led to an ever-increasing number of exciting projects.

“We are very interested in meeting supply chain partners with the relevant experience and expertise to work with us on high-quality new homes schemes.”

In South Wales and the South West, the company’s regional forward order book to 2021 exceeds £200m with developments planned throughout the area,

Duffett added: “The Meet the Buyer event is an excellent opportunity to get to know our team and our approach to partnership working.

“We are always keen to hear from people with the right skills who want to work with us. As a business, we are a firm believer in creating benefits for local people and businesses in the areas where we operate.

“Providing the chance for local firms and individuals to work with us on our award-winning schemes is a big part of that community commitment.”

Major schemes currently include landmark west Cardiff development The Mill and Ymyl Yr Afon – a £25m, 153-home development at the former site of the Merthyr Vale Colliery near Merthyr Tydfil.

The Meet the Buyer event is free and firms looking to attend should register in advance here.

It will be held from 10am to 2pm on Monday April 29 at The Towers Hotel & Spa, near Swansea (M4, J42).
