He commented: “We are delighted to have reached this significant milestone. It took us 14 years to crack the £100m barrier, then nine years to crack £200m. It has taken just seven years to crack £300m!

“We have a winning formula – a strategy that focuses on growth and our best team ever. Our sights are now set firmly on £1bn annual sales as we enter our fourth decade of trading.”
