$1 Billion milestone for exhibition stand and display industry leader

Neil, an RAF bomber pilot in World War II, was shot down over France and hidden by the French Resistance until liberated by advancing American armies. After the war he went on to become a successful commercial photographer with a number of major multi-national corporations as clients including Ford General Motor Group and General Foods. Finding that he needed a portable back drop display stand which he could take round and nothing being available, he set out to invent one.

With limited commercial experience, Neil turned to two good friends, Gerald Perutz and Gordon Wixley for help in developing his new exhibition display stand idea. Both Gerald and Gordon became founding shareholders and non executive directors of Nimlok Ltd in London in 1970. The first year started off slowly with sales in 1970 of £40,000. However, over the next few years Nimlok began to grow and prosper. The business plan called for the company to grow to the then exciting figure of £1,000,000 in annual turnover. By the late 1970's, Nimlok had achieved this goal.
