Company History
Summerfield Engineering was formed in 1967 by three brothers Roger, Mike and Jerry Summerfield. They started out in a small workshop and over the years kept expanding, moving into a purpose built factory in 1976. This has since been extended three times to incorporate larger machinery and an expanded workforce. Heavy investment in modern CNC machinery has helped move the company to a higher level of quality and service.
Over the last 30 years Rogers’s three sons Glenn, Scott and Ashley have been working in the business gaining valuable experience. In 2004 they brought out the company from the founders who are now the present landlords.
