The John Wilson Memorial Trust 

The John Wilson Memorial Trust (JWMT) was set up in memory of the late John Wilson, son of Ulster Carpets founder, George Walter Wilson, following his passing in 2009.

John Wilson always had an enduring passion for business, particularly the long held establishment of significant employment in Portadown that is in keeping with Ulster Carpets' place in the community.

The Trust is run by nominated Trustees involved in Ulster Carpets, including two of John's sons, and continues the company's commitment to supporting the local community.
