THE NEXT CHAPTER
The 1st August 2018 heralded the next chapter in the evolution of Yorkshire
Generators. Over the past 10 Years Richard Ogden and Steven Dresser have seen
their business mature into a major player in the Diesel Generator market. In
January 2018 with the expiry of their lease at Boroughbridge looming both Richard
and Steven’s desire was to acquire their own premises for future expansion.

AS luck would have it a former mushroom
farm in Wath, North Yorkshire became
available for sale. Given its location and
the fact that buildings were already in situ,
this was an ideal opportunity for the York-
shire Generators expansion plan.
The site had been vacant for over two
years so the property was in a very dilap-
idated state of repair, however Richard
and Steven set on straight away to refur-
bish the original buildings including the
erection of security fencing, CCTV mon-
itoring equipment and remote activating
security barriers. There are also future
plans for a new stand-alone office building
to cater for further growth.
With works now complete Yorkshire
Generators have a much stronger capabili-
ty to drive the business forward whilst con-
tinuing to maintain their fleet of equipment
to the highest standards and respond to
customers’ needs immediately.
