A STRING of new clients has helped a Burntwood packaging company record the busiest 12 months in its 43 year-history.

Lesters, which employs 60 people, saw revenue soar by 25% as demand for its services such as design, boxes, supply chain management and logistics services grew.

As a result, the family-run firm is now looking to recruit in seven new roles across production, forklift driving, customer service and transport.

Billy Hutchinson, managing director of Lesters, said:

> "We’ve achieved our best ever year and need more team members to help us take it on even further.  
>  
> "There’s lots of opportunities in automotive that we’re discussing and we want to capitalise on these, not to mention supporting the expansion of our sister business Lesters Logistics."  
>  
> "Lesters Logistics has been a massive success story. We’ve transformed a struggling company into a full service provider, where we can offer stock and serve, pick and pack and straightforward transport solutions in one place.   
>  
> "It’s a crucial link in the Lesters ecosystem, which also includes a 'reuse' offer that buys back used boxes and resells them to the market to generate revenue and boost the environment."

The company says it is also looking for additional warehousing space in the West Midlands to support the activities of Lesters Logistics.
