Construction firm Beard has said a strong supply chain helped it achieve a "robust” financial performance for 2021, yielding growth of 6%.
In a set of results for the year ending December 2021, the 130-year-old business reported a pre-tax profit of £4.2m, in line with the previous year, but down on 2019’s figure of £4.4m.
Turnover rose to £144m, up from £135m in 2020, but back from the pre-pandemic numbers of £158m in 2019.
