BRANCH REOPENING
“We have been overwhelmed by the support shown to us by the local community andour wider customer base.”
Aaron Gordon, Branch Manager, Ballymena Robert Guys.
J P Corry has officially reopened its newly rebuilt Ballymena (Robert Guy) branch following a devastating fire that closed the site in June 2019. Putting a temporary structure in place in order to continue serving the local community, the branch has been completely rebuilt. JP Corry was completely committed to rebuilding and bringing the branch back to the local community with a new modern style and finish. The rebuild has enabled the company to strengthen its offering in
the Mid/North Antrim area and create new jobs, while offering a number of exciting improvements, including a larger builders yard and warehousing area with an onsite mill, expanded product range and a bright and welcoming shop layout. CONSTRUCTION On June 13, 2019, a fire ripped through the main buildings of the Robert Guy branch located in Glarryford, Ballymena. What buildings remained when the fire was extinguished had to be demolished in the interests of
health and safety. The fire delivered a huge blow to the business at the time but in particular to the staff at Robert Guy and the local community. The decision was made to rebuild the branch in order to service the local community and its loyal customer base, which has been long established. Demonstrating great determination, vigour and agility, the branch was re-open
within six weeks, albeit with a temporary structure in place
consisting of a converted marquee and portacabins whilst construction
