In this print from 1988, we are transported back to the bustling Dannimac raincoats factory in Middlesbrough. An impressive £800,000 extension has just been unveiled, symbolizing a significant investment in both infrastructure and the dedicated workforce. Factory manager Michael Hodgson proudly shares that this substantial sum was used to purchase and renovate a third factory while also acquiring state-of-the-art machinery. The image captures an important moment as Donald Parr, Chairman of parent group William Baird, stands alongside John Ross, Dannimac's Managing Director. They are joined by Chris Robson, the deputy Mayor of Middlesbrough who is engaged in conversation with presser Grace Muir. The presence of these influential figures highlights the significance of this expansion not only for Dannimac but also for the local community. This photograph serves as a testament to the thriving clothing industry during the 1980s and showcases how companies like Dannimac played a vital role in providing employment opportunities for individuals within their communities.
