Wynne Construction, a family-owned company based in Denbighshire, is marking its 100th year in business with an impressive order book exceeding £325 million. This milestone highlights the company's robust position in the construction industry, with £228 million worth of projects currently underway and an additional £99 million in pre-construction stages.
What Happened
Wynne Construction has secured a diverse array of projects across education, healthcare, housing, leisure, and low-carbon sectors in Wales and the North West of England. Notable ongoing projects include the £26 million Leisure and Wellbeing Centre in Newport, the £13 million Ty Haverfordia scheme for senior apartments in Pembrokeshire, and the £31 million Aethwy Care residential care home and health facility in Anglesey. Additionally, they are working on an £11 million archive center for Denbighshire and Flintshire councils and a £4 million Maggie’s Centre in Liverpool.
The company's managing director, Chris Wynne, emphasized the importance of these projects in providing long-term benefits to local communities and highlighted the significance of their partnerships with clients and supply chain partners. Wynne stated that a strong order book not only secures financial health but also supports workforce planning and investment in skills and training.

For AECM professionals, Wynne Construction's centennial success story underscores the value of maintaining strong client relationships and a diverse project portfolio.
