Today, (14th February 2025) sees one of our group companies – Event Hire UK – celebrate 20 years of successful operations.
Event Hire UK’s history
From humble beginnings back in 2005, when the company began operations from a small warehouse in Walsall in the West Midlands, the business has grown to become the leading hire company in the UK live events sector when it comes to event furniture hire, catering equipment hire, tableware hire and much more.
With regional sales and distribution hubs around the country, Event Hire offers a seamless hire experience to event professionals, stadiums, venues, convention centres and members of the public.
Under the careful management of founder & MD, Les Vipond, the company has seen both strong periods of growth along with times of turmoil such as the COVID pandemic, which decimated the events industry. Unlike many of their competitors, Event Hire UK survived this critical phase and has since grown again, further strengthening its position in the sector.
With a product range and stock that is unrivalled in the event hire industry, we’re confident that Event Hire UK will continue to thrive. Huge congratulations to the whole team, and here’s to the next 20 years!
