Our journey
GW Shelter Solutions has been a cornerstone of the bus shelter industry since our launch in 2019. We have completed numerous projects throughout the UK over the years, adding to our previous experience as Queensbury Shelters Ltd.
Queensbury Shelters was a successful bus shelter manufacturing company that became synonymous with supplying high quality bus shelters. The business worked hard to become one of the country’s leading industry manufacturers, enhanced by their excellent sales and after-sales service.
Our Founder and Managing Director, Glen Wilson worked at Queensbury Shelters for over 26 years, aiding in their success and strengthening their position as industry leaders. When the shareholders decided to take a well-earned step away, Glen took the opportunity and acquired the intellectual property rights of all Queensbury products, design, and historical data.
And this was where GW Shelter Solutions was born.
