Powering performances since 1960 The same year our founder Harry Gordon opened the doors to his camera shop in Kensington, a little-known band from Liverpool performed their first concert in Hamburg. The Beatles would go on to great things on stage and behind the scenes, we did too! The Torpedo Factory Group launched in London in 1960 when we opened the doors of a glamorous shop at 45 High Street Kensington in London. Over the last 6 decades we’ve grown through word of mouth and acquisitions, including: National Stage Technology (formed from the merger of Northern Stage and Lancelyn Theatre Supplies) Orion AV Pinnerton Video Systems Hot AV Working Wall Foresight Audio Visual Medius Hire Gray Audio Visual We’re proud to say many customers and employees are still with us from these acquisitions. 'Our experience with the Torpedo team has been excellent. Every single person is polite and helpful and their workmanship is very good. The quality of their products is excellent.’ Agatha Kalisperas, Director at The Hellenic Centre We get a genuine sense of satisfaction from seeing our customers’ projects through to completion, professionally and within budget. If there are challenges along the way, we’ll tap in to our experience and expertise to overcome them quickly, giving you complete piece of mind. Today we have a turnover of almost £10m. We are a 70-strong team, across 4 locations bringing decades of experience and passion to every project.
