LGH Rigging Services was established as a dedicated, back-up, equipment resource for the entertainment industry in 1997 by LGH Group plc, leaders in lifting and winching equipment for over 30 years. The business has until now been solely UK based at Three Mills Island Studios, London and is managed by Bob Dean.
Following its success in the UK, it has been decided to further support and develop European customer relationships by establishing a new mainland European base at Utrecht in Holland. Paul Fulcher, operations director, LGH Group, explained: "Our personnel's lifting and rigging expertise in the entertainment industry has been combined with a vast hire fleet to create a very powerful and professional package which can be easily replicated for the Dutch and European markets."
The Dutch business is managed by Frank Kreuk who has over 20 years' experience in the entertainment business, having previously worked for Focus Show Equipment and Flashlight before setting up his own company, Rotterdam Rigging.
