Long-term existing clients include BMS, Diageo, Glanbia Kerry Foods and Pfizer. The company recently won a large data centre contract in Bahrain.

In 2014, Leo Lynch looked to address small incidents and lapses of attention on-site with an initiative, which was driven by its workers. Employees regardless of level in the Group were encouraged to correct anyone on-site, regardless of position, who was displaying poor safety behaviour. The success of this approach was recognised in 2017 at the annual NISO Occupational Safety Awards, where it picked up both the Higher Distinction and the Consistent High Achiever awards.
