About us

Working with the biggest brands, we offer a huge range of power tools, consumables, and other equipment online and in-store. Even though we’re now one of the UK’s largest independent suppliers, our ethos of personal service and attention to detail are still in our DNA.
We continue to build up our team of enthusiastic, passionate people that rise to any challenge and love being part of a successful company where everyone plays their part, and we want you to play a key role in our future by joining our friendly Warehouse Team.
