I've been with Mackwell for most of my working life, when I originally joined the company in 1992 we were a much smaller operation providing emergency conversions and inverters for the local market. Over the past 20 years we've grown beyond recognition to become a leading technology solutions provider to Global Lighting OEM's. I'm proud to run a UK electronics business.
