Welcome to Ploughcroft's latest editions

Ploughcroft MD Chris Hopkins recently appeared on Dragons Den successfully securing £120,000 of investment. The two lucky Dragons to be involved with Ploughcroft are Deborah Meaden and Theo Paphitis. The final choice of Dragons was of top importance to Chris: "Apart from their excellent reputation in the world of business, Deborah and Theo are trusted household names.

This was very important to me, as I want Ploughcroft to grow to become the household name of choice for solar and renewable energy installations. We're one of the leading solar installers for the UK and I want our name to be synonymous with solar, just like big brand names are with other household industries."

"Everyone at Ploughcroft is very excited to be involved with two excellent business minds that are also household names like Deborah and Theo"

Chris is excited at the prospect of working with Deborah and Theo to drive his business forward and expand across the UK.

"It is fantastic to have had the opportunity to meet such successful entrepreneurs. Through their backing and bank of contacts both in the UK and across the globe, we're looking forward to achieving major success with Ploughcroft in the renewable energy market."

In a statement from Deborah, she says...

"I had already identified the renewable energy market as an exciting place to do business, not least because it combines doing the right thing with great returns.
As with all rapidly growing markets, there are good and bad operators out there, but Chris clearly demonstrated that he was deeply knowledgeable and an industry leader, not just jumping on the bandwagon.
He was also obviously someone who gets stuff done and cares about his customers...seemed like the perfect fit and so I went for it!"
