Southern Engineering was founded in the 1920's by the Foley family and was the largest supplier of general Engineering Equipment in Ireland.
In 2002 the present directors Morgan O Brien - MD / Brian Foley - Engineering Director / Declan Field - Operations Director completed a Management Buy Out. From that point all 3 companies, in Ireland, were merged under the one company ESI Technologies Ltd and ESI Process UK was expanded.
The new owner Directors, agreed to reinvest any profits back into the company to ensure its viability and its growth. This commitment has paid dividends with ESI continuing to expand its operations in Ireland and the UK. The most recent being the forming of ESI Service UK as a result of the acquisition of BC Engineering a company based in Middlesbrough and specialising in all aspects of service of process equipment. The owners of BC Engineering John Coverdale & Martin Bruce remained in ESI Service UK as shareholder directors.
ESI now consists of a dedicated team of people in Ireland and the UK. We are committed to customer satisfaction, using the expertise of our people to focus on customer requirements and by applying quality products, solutions and service.
