The Early Days
Clements Midlands Plant Hire was originally established in 1965 as a transport company by Fred Clements. GW Deeley, a local building contractor and property developer, bought the company in 1967. The intention was to have their own in-house transport and plant supplier. Through the early 1980’s the business pivoted towards the hire of equipment to local Midlands businesses.
The acquisition of an independent tool hire company in Rugby, Alljay Tool Hire in 1990, supports growth for the new business. Alljay’s owner, John Jennings’ arrival at the re-branded Clements Alljay as Managing Director, brought extensive experience of the UK Hire industry as a founding member of the highly respected Hire Association of Europe (HAE) to the business.
