Tell us who you are?
I’m Graham Brammer, the Director of Swift Electrical Contractors Ltd.

I did a similar design for my father’s company when I was at school, so as a nod to my father, I reused the design but had it professionally created.

What made you want to start your own business / or work for your company?
My father was an electrician, and as a youngster, I worked on some of his small projects. This gave me the desire to pursue an electrical apprenticeship and later start my own business.
