MANAGING DIRECTOR Now about our company «Surefire Heating». We’re a public limited company based in Wokingham. We’ve been in business some thirty years now. At the beginning, we made only heating and ventilation units – they’re still our main product lines, actually. But recently we’ve moved into the field of kitchen equipment for the hotel and catering trade.

SIBLEY Interesting. You should find plenty of customers for that equipment up here. I’m sure you’re aware of that.

MANAGING DIRECTOR Oh yes, we’re not short of customers in Northern England. Now, I tell should you that our most exciting new product line is microwave ovens. We’ve got big plans for these. More about that in a moment.

SIBLEY Right.

MANAGING DIRECTOR Let me give you some idea of the company’s size now. Our turnover last year was close to $30 m, our pre-tax profits around $4.5 m. We’ve got a work-force of approximately 300 employees. We're expanding fast, I’m happy to say. Our growth rate – in terms of turnover – has been almost 10% a year.

SIBLEY Very impressive.

MANAGING DIRECTOR Thank you. Now Bob will say a word about our labour relations. He has more to do with that side of things than I do.

PRODUCTION MANAGER Thanks. Well, in a word, Mr Sibley, our relations with the union are first class. We’ve never had a strike at the plant and obviously we’re very proud of that record. It's probably because we treat our employees well. We listen to what they have to say about their work, and they’ve plenty of opportunities to give their opinion. I'm not saying we'll never have a strike.

SIBLEY Mm, nothing’s certain in life, is it?

PRODUCTION MANAGER Right.

MANAGING DIRECTOR I think that gives you some idea of our business, Mr Sibley. Let me tell you now why we wanted to meet you. You see, we’re planning to produce 30,000 micro-wave ovens next year. And we expect our output to rise to 60,000 or even 70,000, in two or three years’ time. For that, we need a factory, say 40,000 square feet, and more workers. Eighty to a hundred employees at least.

SIBLEY We can certainly help you there. Let me tell you what the north of England can offer you.

V. Напишите десять вопросов своему коллеге о его работе (см. схему построения вопросов в упр. 2).

MIKE It’s not going to be easy to plan the trip, you know. I’ve only got four days there, and a lot to park in during that time.

PAUL Like what?

MIKE Well, for one thing, it’s essential that I spend at least a day in Sheffield – with our associate company.

PAUL And what else?

MIKE I must spend another day at the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham. It’s one of the main purposes of my visit.

PAUL Of course. That should give us a good idea of what the competition will be bringing out in the fall.

MIKE Exactly. And then I should spend a morning in London. I’d like to visit the Design Centre among other things.

PAUL Interesting. While you’re there, it would be helpful if you could see Jim Seymour. You promised you’d visit him if you were in London.

MIKE Right, it would be a good idea to drop in on him, I agree.

PAUL If I were you, I’d try to stay an extra day or two. There are plenty of things you could do for us there.

MIKE Oh, I don’t know, I’m really busy here at the moment, you know.

PAUL Yes, I know you are. I think you ought to talk to Dan. I’m (am) sure he’d do some of your work while you’re away.
