Aerial displays, trapeze artists, and fairground rides brought some vivid colour to Morgan Marine’s Llandybïe headquarters at the weekend when the company marked its 50th anniversary in style.

More than 600 friends, family and staff gathered for the circus-themed celebration on Saturday.

The past year has been one of highlights for the manufacturing firm – not only are they raising a glass to their first 50 years and to their 47th in Llandybie, they also welcomed a visit from HRH The Price of Wales back in February, when he cut the ribbon on their new extension.

Saturday’s celebration continued throughout the day and evening, so the whole family could get involved, and Morgan GRP Ltd's Managing Director, Martyn Ingram, said he was delighted to see everyone getting into the spirit of the occasion.

“Morgan Marine has always been very much a family firm and Saturday’s celebration was like a very big family gathering - there was a real party atmosphere," he said.

“It has been a pleasure to be a part of the community in Llandybie for so many years and we felt we couldn't let our red letter day pass the without some fanfare.

“We are, of course, looking forward to our next 50 years.”
