Anthony Broome Jr. joined the business full-time at 18, after assisting his father during evenings and weekends, and completing a national certificate in general horticulture.

The company continued to grow, and in 2002 was awarded additional gas site contracts across the north of England for a blue-chip provider, establishing a niche in the market.
