WHY CHOOSE SOLO?

Experiences in hostile environments in contries like Croatia, Northern Ireland, Afghanistan, Iraq & a few other countries that connot be named gave SOLO the knowledge and the ground truth of what really was required & believed that capability within United Kingdom manufacturing could be advanced to a higher level with the right approach. Setting up SOLO would offer an excellent service for new 1st stage military concept designs ready for trial and evaluation. Products were made to ensure they were suitable for personnel on the ground before committing to manufacture larger orders. Initially this was completed independentley and worked for the first year single handed bringing SOLO up to new levels of manufacturing, later adding a small workforce of 15 that completes SOLO Handmade Productions then adding a 250 strong overseas workforce to assist with main bulk orders, this handshake allows SOLO to produce high spec custom made products ready for troops on the ground making it easier to complete the mission regardless of unit.
