How did you get the name Q-par Angus ?

Here is a list of frequently asked questions about our company. You may find that this is a good place to look to find your answers quickly. We will add extra entries to this from time to time.

The company was established in 1973. The company founders (still heavily involved in the running of the business) have the surname 'Holliday'; 'Holliday Engineering' did not fit with their vision of how the company would operate !

Q-par Angus LogoAfter much deliberating, the name was chosen at random, with a pin and an atlas of the UK. The pin randomly landed in a town called Cupar Angus, in Scotland. There was already a company called Cupar Engineering, so that name could not be used. Instead, 'Cupar Angus' became 'Q-par Angus' with the letters C and U becoming a Q and A, also signifying the company's heavy commitment to Quality Assurance.

Over the years the name has been useful, as it is quite memorable. Also, we are fortunate to be able to use a rather short domain name of q-par.com.
