Representatives of the hardware manufacturer VBH have reported that more customers than ever are using the company’s improved trade counter facility in Swansea. The counter is open during weekday working hours and offers a large selection of hardware from VBH’s own GreenteQ brand, as well as from other ‘top marques’ including Yale and AGB.
VBH staff advised that fabricators, installers and maintenance companies within a wide radius of Swansea regularly call in to collect products including profile cylinders, patio door gear, resi-door and window hardware, vents and construction chemicals, among other items. Dave, VBH Swansea’s operations manager, said: “Often, customers can’t wait for a delivery so prefer to call in and pick up what they need for the day.
“As well as the convenience of being local, we cater for orders of all sizes, with no minimum order value and no need to pre-order. Walk-ins are welcome.”
The trade counter has proven so popular that it has been listed as a finalist in this year’s National Fenestration Awards in the Trade Counter of the Year category. “We may not have the biggest or most plush counter but our wide stock range and friendly, experienced team make it an attractive option for local businesses,” explained Dave. “Being named as a finalist is a massive pat on the back for our hard-working team, and a win would be the cherry on top!”
