A new vinyl pressing plant in Middlesbrough is aiming to create 30 new jobs
The company’s website is currently hosting a countdown to what appears to be the official launch of the business in 49 days’ time (May 28).The venture marks the opening of the first-ever vinyl record manufacturing plant in the north of England, and is being spearheaded by Press On Vinyl Production’s Teesside-based founding directors Danny Lowe, David Todd and David Hyne. All three have been part of the local music scene for the past 20 years, according to a press release from TeesAMP.It’s hoped that 100,000 records will be produced each month at the plant, with priority being given to smaller independent music labels.
