SICOR INTERNATIONAL LTD (UK)

Sicor International’s first site was set up in 1994 in Aberdeen, mainly providing and specialising in servicing the large Scottish fishing industry and also the off-shore markets.

Sicor decided to open an English warehouse in 1997 in order to expand the distribution of its Portuguese manufactured products. This soon lead to the opening of a factory that had the capabilities to manufacture finished nets from the imported base products produced in Portugal.

Sicor International decided to locate in Bridport West Dorset, this was the ideal location because the company could draw on a pool of skilled netmakers that were already present in the area. The company employs a workforce of over thirty employees in premises with a combined floor area of over 20,000sq,ft.
