Branch manager Wendy Martin said: “It’s great to open our very first branch in Wakefield and to introduce ourselves to the trade locally. We’re particularly proud to have opened just as we received the Which? Retailer of the Year Award 2016, recognising that we go the furthest to satisfy our customers. The team here really does pride itself on making it quick and easy for our customers to get their trade supplies when they need them by calling in or using our click and collect service. We are looking forward to lending a hand to the tradespeople of Wakefield with our honest advice and the best products for the jobs they have.”
