Hardware distributor, Carl F Groupco, has recently celebrated the fifth anniversary of the 2010 merger of its founding companies, Groupco and Carl F.
Carl F Groupco currently offers around 5,000 products, which it says equates to over 1.7 million individual components stocked at its Peterborough distribution facility. The company is said to place its focus on service and technical support, backed by continued investment in staff, systems and a strong customer support infrastructure.
Commenting on the anniversary, managing director, John Crittenden, said: “We have remained true to our objective of offering service that is second to none with a portfolio of leading brand hardware and some own brand products to address the price driven sector of the market. Our growth is testimony to the commitment of our workforce – our staff are passionate about service and it is their drive, skills and ability that has enabled us to realise our vision.
“To single out just a few of our key achievements since 2010 is hard as our brand developments have been significant however, I would like to mention our ongoing partnerships with leading manufacturers such as FUHR and new relationships including Ingenious. A number of our staff have been justifiably recognised with promotions to management positions and we have recruited some of the industry’s movers and shakers, including Norman Berrill and latterly, Paul Simpson as head of sales.”
