Tilbury Douglas

Article Abstract:

Tilbury Douglas is a construction company that has moved into support services, and aims to have its stocks reclassified. The market for support services is growing rapidly compared with construction, and the company is improving its profit margins. Brandt, an industrial servces and scaffolding company, and How, an engineering and facilities management group, have been acquired and the company is better placed to market itself as a 'one stop shop. Tilbury Douglas is not yet fully focused on support services, but deserves a re-rating.
