Hampson Industries plc reports that it has appointed Alan Cheek as managing director for its subsidiary company Price & Orphin Limited of Newtown, Powys, UK, following the retirement of the previous director. Alan was formerly the financial director of Mibert Precision of Leicester, another Hampson Group subsidiary operating company.

Price & Orphin Limited was created nearly 50 years ago and specialises in precision machined and pressed parts for the aerospace industry. Joining the group in 1990, continual investment in machine tools and associated inspection equipment has brought the company to one of the most advanced of its type in mid-Wales.

Alan joined Mibert Precision in 1996 from a pressure-vessel manufacturing company where he was financial director, a position that conferred a deep understanding of the automotive industry. Of the appointment he said: "Price & Orphin's business plan is set and on course and I will be looking for organic growth with a selected number of aerospace and associated customers".
