A flourishing event management company is expecting to take on four more staff and bring in orders worth £1m over the next year after moving into larger premises.

D&B Ent UK have moved to a new site in Fenton, from their former Longton HQ, and invested in a mobile catering outlet.

They have also refurbished a conference room to provide space for theatre workshops and drama groups. It is also set to become the home of street dance classes for Stoke-on-Trent City Council's Uth Service.

Bosses now want to double turnover, and diversify into other areas, and will be adding to their six-strong workforce in 2011.

Director Darren Mood said: "We have ambitious plans for the business and our old home didn't give us the capacity to achieve them.

"Our move will allow us to develop other elements of the business, including selling a wide range of CCTV equipment to the trade.

"To do this we will need to bring in at least four more employees, and will embark on a recruitment drive in the new year."

Working in partnership with Stoke-on-Trent City Council, they are getting involved with a number of Christmas Light Switch-On celebrations. They are also involved in other switch-ons around the country.

Mainly, the company - formerly known as D&B Entech - supplies PA equipment, stages, barriers, lighting, sound and security for community events, but they also tour the country with bands and musicians.

In the past year they have worked with Tinie Tempah, The Four Tops, Jason Donovan and some X Factor contestants, including last year's runner-up Olly Murs.
