Glasgiven Contracts Ltd celebrates 40 years of success with new HQ

Glasgiven Contracts Ltd, a key player in the Irish construction sector, commemorates 40 years of operation with the strategic opening of its new headquarters in Banbridge. This relocation is engineered to fortify its position along the pivotal Dublin-Belfast economic corridor, facilitating expanded client engagement across the island of Ireland and integrating with its Clonee, Dublin office. Established in 1985 by Liam Murphy and William Smith, the firm has navigated four decades of economic downturns and political instability, demonstrating remarkable resilience. Its sustained success is attributed to a focus on quality craftsmanship, relationship-driven partnerships, and continuous innovation, from early CAD adoption to current BIM implementation. Financially, the company posted an 80% revenue increase from £27.6m in 2023 to £49.6m in 2024, underpinned by significant project deliveries including the £60m St Ronan’s College Lurgan. The new facilities are pivotal to its growth trajectory and multidisciplinary team expansion. With a reconstituted leadership team, including Cormac Murphy as Managing Director, this strategic investment signals Glasgiven’s assertive intent to enhance operational efficiency and market presence in a competitive landscape, affirming its long-term commitment to the region's development.
