Clive Owen: E2E Profit 100 Panelist at the House of Lords
We are delighted to announce our inclusion in the E2E Profit 100 track, featuring privately owned, UK-based companies with an operating profit of more than £5 million over the past two years, excluding those with fewer than 10 employees. The ranking is based on percentage operating profit growth over the two most recent filing periods.
A1 Loo Hire was established in 2004, under the leadership of Director Clive Owen, who had previously served as Managing Director for one of our Wet Waste Clients. Specialising in the rental of portable toilets and welfare units for both events and construction sites, the company has experienced notable growth since its inception.. Since its official launch, A1 Loo Hire has significantly expanded its operations across the UK, reaching from South Wales to the East of England, forming a total of 6 depots.
The E2E Profit 100 is run by E2E in association with The Independent and in partnership with IWG plc. It will identify privately owned, UK-based companies with an operating profit of more than £5 million over the past two years, excluding those with fewer than 10 employees. The track has been compiled independently by Go Live Data and Experian.
We would like to thank E2E, especially Shalini Khemka CBE for the acknowledgement of our business endeavours and our inclusion in the track, and The Independent for their support of the track release. We were also delighted to be invited to celebrate the launch at the House of Lords co-hosted by Lord Bilimoria CBE, DL and Richard Morris, CEO of IWG plc UK. The campaign would not have come to fruition if not for E2E’s strategic founding partner IWG plc as well as, universal-partners-fx, Lioncroft, Go Live Data, Virtuoso Legal-Intellectual Property Specialists, Experian and, Adia PR.
Clive Owen, A1 Loo Hires Director was personally invited to the House of Lords to participate on the esteemed panel of the E2E Profit 100 to discuss Brexit, the corporate tax, and other important topics. He spoke for many present when he said that high incorporate taxes were a problem. Clive was asked, after a substantial growth in profit whether he feels pressured to keep on growing profits, Clive Replied, only half-joking, that he didn't feel like making much more because he didn't want to pay even heftier tax.
The evening proved successful, providing valuable insights into the sentiments experienced by numerous business owners regarding Brexit and other pertinent and compelling topics.
