David Larcombe, who recently retired after 40 years’ service at Bystronic UK, latterly as managing director, was invited with his wife Alison to say goodbye to his colleagues at the Swiss company’s headquarters in Niederönz. After the event, the couple were treated to a weekend in the Swiss Alps beside Lake Lugano.

“I feel extremely privileged to have had the career that I’ve enjoyed within the engineering industry,” says Larcombe. “I have a number of very special memories, especially the many years working for Bystronic. It has been a wonderful company to serve, as I always felt I was a friend rather than an employee. I’ve made many great friendships, both within Bystronic worldwide and the UK sheet metalworking industry. I wish everyone the very best for the future.”
