Whiddon Valley is also the location for a number of companies including the large global pharmaceutical company Actavis
Formerly known as BroadSkill it was purchased by Bray Leino[1], a company that is itself part of the Mission Marketing Group. Before acquisition by Bray Leino, BroadSkill focused on Public sector training but after becoming integrated with Bray Leino it became Bray Leino BroadSkill and their remit was opened up to include the Private sector.
Bray Leino BroadSkill has been awarded a number of public and private contracts. Though main public service contracts predominantly are sought within the United Kingdom and are found under the national procurement frameworks of the UK government.
Bray Leino
Bray Leino as a group plays a important role as an employment and economic resource for North Devon and South Westand the company derives 10% of its turnover from the area. Overall Bray Leino has been a growing company[2]. Bray Leino was originally based in London, but choose to relocate its principle office to Devon, however smaller Bray Leino offices can also be found in London, Bristol, Cheshire, and Edinburgh.
In particular it has been noted that on a local level the town of South Molton benefits in a way that is “important to the economy of the South Molton area[3]” as it “provides high quality and skilled jobs”[3]. The principle reason for this lies in the nearby location of Bray Leino’s main design agency at Filleigh.
Bray Leino as a whole supports charitable works, particularly the North Devon Hospice, the Arts through the Appledore Arts Festival and sports in the form of the local rugby team the North Devon Raiders via sponsorship.
