Local MP Alan Mak visited fire door manufacturer Ahmarra’s factory recently, to see the Havant-based business in action and congratulate the founders on 30 years of successful trading.
Alan was given a tour of the facility, which manufactures high quality performance fire doors and glazed screens. The company relocated from Farlington to their new, modern, purpose-built manufacturing facility on the Hermitage Park Business Estate in 2021.
Ahmarra’s diverse portfolio spans education, healthcare, hospitality, airports, commercial buildings, luxury homes, social housing and student accommodation. Their local projects include Queen Alexandra Hospital, Berewood Primary School, Solent University, Fareham Innovation Centre and numerous local Council social housing projects.
Following the tour, the Havant MP met Co-Founders Tim and Kellie Doran. During their meeting Alan congratulated them on their success and wished them well for the future. Both Tim and Kellie were educated at local schools in the Havant and Portsmouth area.
Local MP Alan Mak said: “Congratulations to Ahmarra for over 30 years of trading. Tim and Kellie are a great local success story and their hard work has created new jobs and prosperity for our area.
He added: “The company plays an important role in helping their clients meet building safety requirements, as well as employing local people which helps strengthen the local economy.”
Managing Director Tim Doran said: “Thank you Alan for visiting our factory. We are proud to be based in the Havant Constituency, and support the local community through employment, training, sustainability and charitable initiatives.”
