Mrs Morgan also visited leading plant hire company Ridgway Rentals, which is based in St Martin's and hires machinery from telehandlers to 50-ton excavators, and transports plant and machinery to construction sites across the UK using its fleet of HGVs and trailers. Elsewhere, Mrs Morgan visited Arla Foods' site in Oswestry last Thursday, viewing operations at the facility where more than 30,000 tonnes of cheese are packed each year.
