I was a bit intrigued the other day, they wheeled out this bloke on a radio
station and described him as an Olympic torch technician, who went on to explain it ran on gas etc.. I started to think to myself. after the games will there be hordes of out of work torch technicians who may need to wait a few years and then emigrate to find work?

Aggreko were always a shower of ****s, from top to bottom. I actually met the original founder once on a trip to the Netherlands, by that time he was fairly elderly and appeared to have little to do with the large PLC that it had become and I believe had lived comfortably on selling his interest many years before. The conversation had started when he spotted an Aggreko set on a ship I was on and more or less said " I started them, I'm the Ag in Aggrego" Seemed an affable fellow, gave me a potted history of his success which was partly due the early stages of the North sea oil and gas industry. A lot of equipment needed 60hz due to it's American origins but the European suppliers of portable generators kept sending out 50hz units. The hirers would speed the engines up but the slower running Diesels used such as Gardners and other traditional names became unreliable with such treatment. Mr Ag had started to use generators with higher revving engines such as Lombardini and these could be speed up with little detriment. Hence his generator hire firm got a reputation for reliability and he did well. G.Harman |

Aggreko did well by undercutting the competition, aggressive selling
and offering terms and deals the others didnt, wouldn't or couldn't. Once Aggreko got to a certain size they were able to buy in bulk that the others couldn't (many smaller UK makers didn't have the turnover or spare cash to buy in and were often hampered by management that were half-dead). Thats known as the English Disease;!(.... That's all fine - just business and many of the other makers were asleep on their feet, thus allowing Aggreko to move in. Doesn't change my opinion of them, though. -- Tony Sayer |
