Burnley Computer Centre

• Managing Director

  • Jun 1985 - Feb 2001

  In 1985 I started Burnley Computer Centre from a small retail shop based in Brierfield, after 3 years I moved the shop into Burnley town centre where BCC became one of the fastest growing retailers of both Amstrad and Commadore computers during this time I picked up a number of awards for service excellence and market growth. As I moved into the world of business computing with Lanway I was able to concentrate on selling PC's and Network products. In Feb 2001 BCC was closed down so that I could concentrate on building Lanway to become one of the UK's leading I.T. solution providers
