BOYCO’s 2023 Journey: From North to South
January 2024
As we start the New Year, we’re looking back at our journey of project collaborations and products supplied across the UK and beyond. From busy metropolitan areas to the expansive countryside, we uncover where this past year has taken us.
During our 61st year in business, we completed 154 projects in England, 16 in Scotland, 11 in Wales, and 1 in Guernsey. Team BOYCO is proud to have successfully supported projects in each corner of our country, greatly contributing to our success this year.
Bespoke Across the UK
We had lots of bespoke and diverse requests during 2023, consisting of specific size requirements, creative colour choices and everything in between! As a team, we leaped at the chance to get involved with so many projects, and to collaborate with contractors, architects and local authorities across the nation.
From University lab refurbishments in Scotland, to Primary School fit outs in London, Hospital storage solutions in Greater Manchester and even Football Club changing room transformations in Devon, BOYCO have been there to exceed expectations across sectors.
During 2023, our award-winning FF&E was enhanced and tailored to meet the unique needs of many clients, including North Chadderton School in Oldham.
The secondary school wanted their new Changing and Cloakroom Furniture to be manufactured from oak to shine a spotlight on them being part of the Oak Trust. Our in-house design, manufacturing and project management teams were excited to support their symbolic request, working with our client Kier Construction to ensure the smooth completion of this project.
E-Commerce Across Regions
2023 also saw the introduction of our new eCommerce website. A game changer in our procurement process, it has provided a new platform for our products allowing our customers from a variety of sectors to purchase from any location across the UK.
Enhancing convenience, our website has proved perfect for those that are looking for a standardised selection of our Built to Last products.
A range of our Disabled Grab Rails, Changing and Cloakroom Furniture, Door Restrainers, Cycle Stands, Racking, Shelving and Desk Support Stands have been delivered across the UK since its launch in October.
BOYCO products have been packaged up and delivered to London, Manchester, Penzance, Dewsbury, Leicester, Cambridge and many more!
Our Central Hub
Nestled in Stockport, our BOYCO manufacturing facility stands proudly at the heart of our UK operations, epitomizing the core of our manufacturing excellence.
As we reflect on our accomplishments during 2023, our central hub has been instrumental in manufacturing and supplying our top-quality fixed furniture and equipment across the country.
Impacting Communities
BOYCO are super committed to positively contributing to the communities that we supply and install in.
During 2023, we were proud to support schools, teams and leisure facilities with donations to enhance lives and learning environments.
Showcasing this, was our delivery of sweet treats to The Firs Primary School in Sale for their Easter Raffle, as well as our donation of Changing and Cloakroom furniture to the Eric Wright Foundation, along with more.
In October, we recruited a new addition in the form of our Digital Marketing Apprentice, Chloe! Based in Stockport, Chloe is testament to our commitment to supporting local recruitment, and reinvestment into the local area.

The road through 2023 would be nothing without our customers across the UK. Here’s a small selection of our testimonials that speak for themselves…
