Bolton, UK – April 3, 2025 – Yesterday afternoon, TVD Group marked a significant milestone, celebrating its two-year anniversary as an employee-owned company with an exciting event held at its cutting-edge AV showroom and Head Office in Bolton.  

With a rich, near three-decade history in Bolton, the company has become a leading UK provider for the design, supply, installation and maintenance of audio-visual technology across a variety of industries, including hospitality, healthcare, betting & gaming, retail and sports stadia to name a few. Recent big-name clients include the F1 Arcade in London and Birmingham, Hollywood Bowl centres and notable local businesses such as Bolton Wanderers and Carrs Pasties.

The event was made even more special by the presence of the Mayor and Mayoress of Bolton, Cllr Andy Morgan and Karen Holdsworth, who were the guests of honour. Cllr Morgan delivered a heartfelt speech, reflecting on his longstanding relationship with the Brown family and commended TVD Group’s journey, recognising the company’s commitment to its employees and the local community.

The event attracted a lively crowd, with local business leaders, valued clients, brand partners, and representatives from TVD’s supported charities, Bolton Wanderers in the Community, and Bolton Hospice. This mix of guests highlighted the broad connections TVD Group has built over the years. 

The evening included speeches from key members of the leadership team, including Managing Director Lucia Maguire and Director Mat Brown, who discussed the company’s transition to employee ownership, sharing the positive impact it has had on the business culture and its growth. 

Sales Director Andy Greaves and Marketing Manager Mike Oliver also addressed the crowd, with Andy focusing on the ongoing success of the showroom, which has proven to be a valuable space since its opening in October 2023. He highlighted how the showroom enables clients to engage with a wide range of technologies in a bespoke environment.
