Richmond-based steelwork contractor Hambleton Steel is focused on growth after securing new funding from FW Capital and NPIF, enabling it to invest in its workforce and create 17 new jobs to support new contract wins and future expansion.
The investment was delivered from NPIF – FW Capital Debt Finance, which is part of the Northern Powerhouse Investment Fund , and The Tees Valley Catalyst Fund which is managed by FW Capital on behalf of Tees Valley Business, the local growth hub for the Tees Valley and part of the Tees Valley Combined Authority.
