Yorkshire-Based Third Generation Celebrates 35 Year Anniversary



July 2024 marked a significant milestone for AMO Group, a leader in bespoke outdoor living solutions, as the company celebrated its 35th anniversary. Established in 1989 by the late Peter Hudson, AMO Group has grown from a small family business focusing on security solutions to a renowned UK-based component assembly and installer of awnings, pergolas, verandas, blinds, security shutters and roller garage doors.


Over the past three and a half decades, AMO Group has committed to delivering high-quality products and exceptional service, driven by a passion for innovation and customer satisfaction. This commitment has positioned the company as a trusted partner for both residential and commercial clients across the UK.


Rachael Hudson, Director at AMO Group said:

"Our journey from a small start-up to becoming a key player in the outdoor living market is a testament to our dedication and hard work. We’re proud to continue the legacy started by my father, and every member of our team plays a crucial role in driving our success forward."

Navigating the turbulent waters post-COVID-19 pandemic, AMO Group has emerged as a testament to the resilience and tenacity of local businesses in Yorkshire. The company's ability to adapt swiftly to changing market conditions and customer needs underlines its role as a flagship of industry in the region. Through strategic planning, a focus on innovation, and maintaining close ties with the community, AMO Group has not only withstood the challenges brought by the pandemic but also continued to flourish.


In response to evolving market demands and the growing interest in outdoor living spaces, AMO Group adeptly pivoted from primarily focusing on security shutters and garage doors to expanding their repertoire to include awnings, pergolas, verandas, and other outdoor living solutions. This strategic shift not only diversified their product offerings but also enhanced their market adaptability. By establishing robust relationships with renowned brands such as Weinor, Markilux, Tarasola, and Morvelle, AMO Group has fortified its status as an approved installer, delivering top-tier outdoor solutions.


Simultaneously, the company proudly continues to manufacture and install its own Lakeland range of awnings. Also, experienced suppliers and installers of pergolas, garage doors, and security shutters, all crafted with precision in the UK. This expansion and collaboration with leading brands demonstrate AMO Group’s commitment to quality and innovation, ensuring they meet the ever-changing needs of their customers while maintaining strong regional roots.


AMO Group's anniversary is not just a celebration of its past but also a launchpad for the future. The company recently unveiled a new website, designed to enhance customer experience with improved navigation and functionality, showcasing their comprehensive range of products. In conjunction with their anniversary, AMO Group is offering special promotions on their awnings and garage doors, including free servicing and exclusive discounts.


The company's component assembly and design advisory capabilities allow for a high degree of customisation, meeting specific needs and preferences of customers. From the rugged beauty of their pergolas to the sleek functionality of their motorised awnings, AMO Group’s products blend aesthetics with performance.


AMO Group proudly stands as a second and third generation family business. Under the guidance of Rachael Hudson, Abby Huntington, and Liz Hudson, AMO Group has thrived by embracing a progressive approach that values diverse perspectives and inclusive practices. This leadership model not only sets a strong example for future generations but also ensures that the company remains adaptive and innovative in a competitive market.


As AMO Group looks to the future, they remain committed to sustainability and innovation.


Abby Huntington, another family member and key figure at AMO Group as Operations Manager said:

"Our goal is to not only meet the current needs of our customers but to anticipate future trends in outdoor living. We're excited about the new technologies and product solutions that we are integrating and our continued commitment to providing the best ideas to transform your outdoor spaces; whether you’re a homeowner or a retail space looking to revamp your aesthetics and keep customers coming back for more!”

Rachael Hudson concludes, “Our success story underscores the importance of robust local businesses in sustaining the economic fabric of Yorkshire, spotlighting AMO Group as a beacon of enduring enterprise and regional pride.”
