Parkhead Welding

Parkhead Welding Co. Ltd was established in 1971 by Billy Rafferty, a professional boxer who was born and bred in the East End of Glasgow. The company started off from a railway arch on Stamford St Barrowfield and progressed to a small yard in Quarryknowe St, Parkhead in 1976. Since then, the turnover has steadily increased resulting in the desire for further expansion in premises, plant and personnel and this was achieved in December 2005 when the company transferred to its current premises at 201, Baltic Street, Dalmarnock, Glasgow. The Business is still very much a family run concern with Billy Rafferty Jnr acting as managing director for the past 25 years.
