Our Story And Looking To The Future
The origins of the Les Searle Group start in 1913 as agricultural engineers based at Parsonage Farm, Horsham, West Sussex and then working locally as threshing contractors. From those early days of engineering and contracting the business diversified and entered the earthmoving sector in the 1940`s.
The business grew through the unrivalled level of service provided and trust, qualities that have remained with us throughout our history.
Today Les Searle Group are now one of the largest privately-owned specialist earthmoving contractors in Southern England and continue to invest in the strategic growth of the business.
