We are about people, partnership, doing good business, and always giving back. We are A.F. Blakemore & Son. As a responsible family business we care about the world beyond our own window. Our economic and environmental impact matters to us – and we show this not just through words but through

action. We engage with local communities to make good things happen, and we take a proactive approach to reducing our carbon footprint. This is the Blakemore Way.
