Our vision is for Instarmac Holdings to become a £75 - £100 million turnover business by 2023 whilst attempting to maintain healthy profits. We aim to achieve this via organic growth, growth of current acquisitions, growth and return on our investments and further acquisitions, investments and increase in property portfolio*. Our 5 year plan is both ambitious and progressive, and in addition to the aforementioned routes*, we intend to utilise our greatest asset – our people.
