About Screwfix
We are a very fast growing brand and a business that has doubled in size over the last five years and it is still growing fast. Our customers are tradesmen and serious DIYers who need to get their jobs done quickly, affordably and right first time and we have developed our business to respond to these needs.
We started life as a mail order catalogue-based business. But as our customers wanted to get their tools quickly and conveniently, we rapidly grew our stores – opening 60 in 2014 alone. Our national store network now provides the UK’s tradespeople (including builders, plumbers and electricians) and serious DIYers with greater access to tools and supplies when they are on the move in-between jobs.
Part of the Kingfisher group we are the UK's largest direct and online supplier of trade tools, accessories and hardware products. We despatch thousands of parcels every week for next day and weekend delivery to tradesmen, handymen and serious DIY enthusiasts all over the UK. We're opening new Trade Counters on a weekly basis nationwide, so with an expansion programme that retailers envy, we really are an exciting and motivating place to progress your career.
