Genesis Crafty is one of Northern Ireland’s most innovative food producers. Based in the mid-Ulster town of Magherafelt, Northern Ireland, they are baked good suppliers to the leading supermarkets including Tesco’s, Marks and Spencer’s, Sainsbury’s, Waitrose and Super Valu. Genesis Crafty and Houston have shared a close working relationship for over 15 years. During this time,  Houston has designed, supplied and installed energy efficiency solutions, facility management and an enhanced maintenance service.

“Genesis has been employing the services of Tommy Houston and his team at Houston Electrical for well over 15 years. During this time we have built a strong working relationship with several contracting projects completed as well as being our 24/7 ‘on call’ electrical contractor.

The increasingly stringent hygiene regulations imposed on the food industry, means that we need to work with partners who we can trust to comply with our health and safety standards. Houston Electrical has adapted with us by going the extra mile to ensure that disruption to production is minimised and hygiene laws are adhered to.

We find Houston Electrical to be proactive in ensuring that our business is up to date with the most energy efficient solutions. At the end of 2013 we replaced all the lighting in the bakery with a market leading energy efficient lighting system with a substantial saving to our electric bill.

Recently, Houston Electrical has just completed all the electrical work in the new state of the art Genesis Crafty test bakery. This involved complete wiring, installation of wifi and specialist lighting schemes including emergency lighting, task, mood and display lighting.”
