GSM Group Limited is proud to announce a significant milestone in its history: the business has officially transitioned to an Employee Ownership Trust (EOT), placing ownership of the Group into the hands of its employees.

This change in ownership signifies the realisation of a long-term ambition of founders Frances Dodd and her late husband Barry Dodd CBE, who built GSM with the belief that its greatest strength has always been its people. Becoming employee-owned means GSM is ensuring that the individuals who contribute to its success every day now have a meaningful stake in its future.

The Group, including GSM Graphic Arts Limited in Thirsk and GSM Valtech Industries Limited in Wetherby, has transferred ownership from Frances Dodd to an Employee Ownership Trust. Under this structure, all employees are beneficiaries of the Trust and will share collectively in the long-term success of the business.

Frances Dodd will continue to play an active role in GSM as a Trustee, working alongside employee representatives from both sites to help guide the company into its next chapter.
