Dawson Shanahan see phenomenal growth through 2022

Dawson Shanahan are delighted to have seen phenomenal growth in 2022 order intake of automotive components, particularly e-mobility, up by 37% compared to 2021.

This growth has come from a mix of both new and long-standing customers that include OEMs and Tier 1 automotive manufacturers.  As part of our investment plan and to help meet orders, a further two rotary transfer machines with CNC controls have been delivered. These will be used to meet the increased demand for Power Connector parts for electric vehicles in response to high customer demand.

In addition, we have also taken delivery of two new high precision lathes to increase capacity.  Sales for 2021 were 27% up on 2020 and 17% on 2019 so the latest figures are encouraging for a very promising year here at Dawson Shanahan.

Les Reeves, Joint Managing Director, explains: "It continues to be incredibly busy in 2022 and we're bucking the trends that are being seen globally in manufacturing. Our strategy to focus on continual investment in new machinery and having an outstanding workforce means we can withstand economic pressure and meet our customers' wide range of needs."
