Following the acquisition of Armstrong Commercial Laundry Systems earlier this year Hughes Electrical reorganised its commercial division for business services and launched Hughes Pro.
This new ‘department’ employs approximately 50 staff members who are responsible for the supply, installation, servicing and repair of highly specialist washing machines and dryers, together with glass and dish washers to commercial organisations. Simon Quinlan, Hughes Pro managing director: “The reorganisation is based on the strengths of the two, well established businesses and we will continue to invest heavily in both. We are a distributor for Miele Professional and Alliance Laundry Systems while we also have a large number of coin operated laundry systems in over 200 locations across the UK. Hughes Pro is now our ‘customer facing commercial department’ and better describes the services we offer. Armstrong’s engineers are currently retraining before transferring to Hughes Pro, giving us a national team of 30 skilled engineers”. The company expects to roll out new products, improvements and services over the coming months and years.
