Following a “significant investment,” Burton has re-launched its Leeds branch with a new livery, extra facilities and an increased product offer.
The branch is one of the specialist roofing merchant’s largest depots, stretching over 1 acre. It was originally launched in 1997 but has now re-opened under its new livery while also undergoing significant re-modelling.
The refurbished branch will also house a training venue and stock more product lines to facilitate increased demand, particularly for solar and flat-roof products.
Martin Armour, Commercial Director, said: “Our vision is to be a leading brand in the industry, and our investment into Leeds is a testament to that. The new brand is also a statement of where we are heading as a business.
“Our purpose is to help our customers enhance their business by getting quality products backed up by our team’s expertise. The refurbished Leeds branch will facilitate that and act as an important hub to access training on new products and gain knowledge on new roofline products.”
Branch Manager Susan Senior, who has been in the roofing industry for 14 years, added: “Customers that have already been to the new branch have been impressed with the new look and feel, and we’re proud of what we have achieved here.”
Burton operates 38 branches across the UK, employs 450 people, and has a turnover of approximately £170 million. It is part of the multinational Cupa Group, which comprises 75 businesses with subsidiaries in nine countries and 25 quarries.
