“We’ve grown from about £400,000 a year supplying Dennis Mowers up to £4 million now where we’re supplying multiple sectors, including aerospace defense.”

In Derby, something incredible is happening. Let’s find out as Lyndsey Vickers of MTDCNC chats with Richard Allen and Nick Allen of All British Precision about how automation, multitasking machines, and lights-out manufacturing have driven 20% year-on-year growth for the company.

  • Parts that used to take half an hour now take just 3 minutes!
  • Up to 80% of components in every Dennis mower are made in-house.
  • STAR machines (like the SR20, SR32, and ST38) enable high-mix, low-volume precision with tight tolerances—no grinding needed.

So how do you scale smartly, stay competitive, and keep it proudly British? Watch the full story from the heart of UK manufacturing.
