Cox & Wright Sale 1980

The new purpose-built factory
The new purpose-built factory


Welcome with a Reason
Later this year Cox & Wright Limited, members of the publicly-quoted West Group International (W. G. I. Limited), will move just a short distance to a new purpose-built factory, showroom, warehouse and office complex on the fast developing Sanders Lodge Industrial Estate, Wellingborough Road, Rushden The new building is being carried out for Cox & Wright by the Rushden building contractors, Watson & Cox Limited.

The changes in our company policies over the past five years have meant a considerable reduction in our manufacturing requirements. This enables us to place on the market at the present time a considerable quantity of well-cared-for, modern machine tools and many items of equipment, materials, parts and accessories, all of which are listed elsewhere in this catalogue.

To fellow engineers and businessmen, I extend a warm welcome to the open viewing day on Monday, 15th September, and wish you successful bidding at the public auction on Tuesday 1 6th September. I am sure your purchases will serve you well as they have done Cox & Wright.

Roy P Peake, C.Eng., M.I.Mech.E.
