“THE COMMERCIAL
MARKET IS STRONG,
AND WE ARE STRONG
IN COMMERCIAL”
» » DECEUNINCK HAS
made a strong start to 2019,
with January sales up 12% year-
on-year. This follows a record-
breaking 2018 which finished
21% up on the previous year.
Deceuninck attributes this
strong momentum to giving
customers the right products
to sell in the premium sector.
Sales of colour and the award-
winning Heritage Flush Sash
have skyrocketed.
Managing Director Rob
McGlennon says: “The
commercial market is
strong, and we are strong in
commercial. The Deloitte
Real Estate Crane Survey, for
example, monitors construction
activity in Belfast, Birmingham,
Leeds and Manchester, as well
as Dublin. In 2018 each city
saw a sustained or increased
level of development across
a range of sectors including
offices, residential, hotels,
retail, education and student
housing.
Simon Bedford, partner
and regional head at Deloitte
Real Estate, said: “To have
construction figures this healthy
is somewhat of a surprise given a
myriad of market uncertainties.
Developer confidence is a
key indicator for economic
health and to have this many
significant construction-starts
over the last 12 months,
especially in speculative office
schemes, is testament to the
resilience of the regions and
appetite for growth.”
