P McVey Building Systems marks 40th anniversary by bringing together employees - both past and present
Toome based off-site construction company P McVey Building Systems has marked its 40th anniversary with a celebration bringing together employees, retired staff, suppliers and community partners at Ballyscullion Park.
Founded in 1986 by Pat McVey, the family business has grown from a small local operation into one of Ireland and the UK’s leading modular construction manufacturers, delivering more than 2,500 projects across the UK and Ireland. Today, the company specialises in the design and manufacture of high-quality off-site construction projects for the education, healthcare and commercial sectors.
Now led by Pat's sons, Adrian and Mike McVey, the business continues to place a strong emphasis on supporting the local economy. Every member of its workforce lives within a 40 mile radius of its Toome headquarters, while around 75% of its supply chain is made up of local businesses.
Speaking at the anniversary event, Director Adrian McVey said: “This was an opportunity to thank the people who have helped build the business over the past 40 years – our current team, former employees, suppliers and everyone who has supported us along the way. We started as a small family business in Co Derry, and although we're now delivering projects across London, Dublin and Belfast, our roots remain firmly here.”
The company has experienced significant growth in recent years while continuing to invest in its manufacturing facilities and workforce. Its portfolio includes education, healthcare and commercial projects throughout the UK and Ireland, including the recently announced Royal Central School of Speech and Drama development in London.
Mike McVey added: “Our family values remain at the heart of the business. We've always believed in building long-term relationships based on trust, quality and accountability. It's something that has allowed us to grow while continuing to create employment and work with local suppliers across the region.”
P McVey Building Systems says it remains committed to expanding its presence in the off-site construction sector while maintaining its long-standing connection to the Mid Ulster community.
Its services also encompass consultation, planning, design, off-site construction, installation, and maintenance, offering clients efficient and sustainable building solutions. The main benefits of its modular approach ensure a superior client experience and product.
