Octink declares 2015 ‘best year yet’

Having completed seven marketing suites by the end of year, Octink is pleased to announce that 2015 was its best year yet for its Build division—with revenue 35 percent more than projected.

One project involved Octink working with architects and partners Fabrica and Mount Anvil on a marketing suite at Keybridge House. Octink provided a concept to construction delivery and internal fit-out service in 18 weeks. The result was a two-storey marketing suite with contrasting materials, textures, and finishes.

2016 is shaping up to be another exciting year for our Build department and the marketing suite opportunities we have in the pipeline


“Over the past few years we have really cemented our position in the marketing suite sector,” says Octink’s managing director, Mike Freely, adding: “We come in and take the pain away from the property developers and construction companies as we are able to do everything from planning and consultation through to design, development and decoration, a complete turnkey solution.”

Another project for the company was in conjunction with LBS properties for The Madison near Canary Wharf, a 53-storey residential building. Octink provided the ground floor marketing suite in a twelve-week long project.

Freely adds: “2016 is shaping up to be another exciting year for our Build department and the marketing suite opportunities we have in the pipeline.

"With the decision to create a maintenance and aftercare department for this part of our business, we believe that we are in a very strong position to offer the construction and property development industry something unique.”

Freely has spoken previously of his concern over the skills shortage in the industry and overcomes this by helping young people into the industry with apprenticeships.
