they have just won the contract for the complete
design and build of all electrical services at the new
Cineworld Complex in their home town of Swindon.
This will include the supply and installation of fire
alarms, emergency lighting, data installation and
projection and sound.
They are particularly proud to have been
awarded this £430,000 contract, working
so close to home, and the association
that this gives them with the exciting new
developments at Regent Circus in Swindon,
right on their doorstep.
Colin White, Chairman, says “To have
succeeded against 5 other companies
to win this tender is a testament to our
ongoing commitment to our clients, and
our workforce. We were up against strong
opposition in a competitive environment
and we are proud to continue our
association with Cineworld.
“We provide employment to many local
people and it will make a refreshing change
for them to be working in their home town
for the duration of this contract, which we

expect to take around fourteen weeks
to complete.”

“To have succeeded against 5
other companies to win this
tender is a testament to our
ongoing commitment”
Colin added “Returning to Swindon will
make a refreshing change for our team. As
a born and bred Swindonian, I am proud to
live and work in the local community.”
With their extensive experience and
knowledge of cinema fit outs, coupled
with a management team responsible
for over sixty similar projects, G&W
Contracting were the best placed
company for the project.
