Installer Chris Lewis Fire & Security held its largest security exhibition to date, on April 3.
The annual show at Oxford United Football Club, saw 20 manufacturers turn out to exhibit their latest products to an audience of Chris Lewis’ invited guests. The exhibition gave the security and fire installer an opportunity to officially announce the company’s new name and brand. Since Chris Lewis Security Services acquired Prestige Fire Protection in 2006 the company had been operating as two divisions of one company. Representatives from the company’s three branches joined forces to introduce attendees at the exhibition to the company’s new identity.
What they say
Chris Lewis, Managing Director says: “We have spent the last two years integrating Chris Lewis Security and Prestige and we’re really pleased with the response from our staff and customers. Growing our fire capabilities with the acquisition of Prestige has been a really positive step for the business. It’s fantastic that we can now offer our security customers fire solutions and vice versa. Uniting the two brands under one banner is a natural next step.” The exhibition gave Chris Lewis‚ prospects and customers from across Oxfordshire, Dorset and Hampshire an opportunity to meet the company’s suppliers and learn about the latest technology on the market. And Mike Covill, Branch Director for the Southampton and Bournemouth offices says: “The exhibition has been considered a huge success. It was really well attended and we’ve received a lot of positive feedback from exhibitors and attendees alike. The event is a fantastic opportunity for us to demonstrate our capabilities and services and for end users to meet our suppliers and learn about some of the more sophisticated systems and products on the market.”
