Westminster Group's Peter Fowler says good momentum has continued into 2020 with more to come

Peter Fowler, Westminster Group PLC’s (LON:WSG) chief executive, says the momentum seen in 2019 has continued into the first half of this financial year. Sales are up 24% on twelve months ago and the group has moved into profit, he told Proactive. Westminster has dealt very well with the coronavirus disruption, with the port operation at Ghana, the manned guarding business and fever screening helping to offset any dips elsewhere. Fowler adds that the move into facemask vending machines has also proved timely with the UK government’s just deciding to make them compulsory in shops. The ‘get back to work safely’ campaign has also generated a lot of interest, he adds.
