Burnham-On-Sea MP David Heathcoat-Amory visited a thriving manufacturing company on the town’s Isleport Business Park this week.
He was given a tour of Amcor Flexibles Baricol, which manufactures plastics and packaging materials.
He met General Manager Simon Embleton-Smith and Sales Manager Bill Longworth, who explained the firm’s role in making packaging for the food market.
Speaking to Burnham-On-Sea.com after his visit, the MP said: “Amcor uses advanced technology to stay ahead in this highly competitive sector. I do whatever I can to support such firms as they are vital for future employment. And our public services are funded out of the taxes they pay.”
Simon Embleton-Smith added: “It was a pleasure to welcome David to our business and good to hear of his support for local manufacturing activities.”
