Dunlop Hiflex is opening its first hose and fittings superstore at Morley, Leeds.
Dunlop Hiflex is opening its first hose and fittings superstore at Morley, Leeds.
An open day on 18th June marks the opening of the vast store.
The company has identified Morley as an ideally centralised location in the north of England at which to combine its Manchester, Leeds and Cramlington warehousing operations.
Its new superstore is ten times the size of the previous Leeds service centre at Gildersome.
"I'm confident that the first superstore in our industry will offer the UK's largest stock of hose and fittings under one roof", comments Managing Director of Dunlop Hiflex Fluidpower, Cliff Burgin.
"We've shifted more than sixty 40ft lorry loads of stock into Morley during May, containing around 600 different types and sizes of hose, from 5mm plastic tubing to 6in diameter rubber hoses, as well as 5000 different couplings and connectors.
I think our marketplace will very soon come to the conclusion that if Dunlop Hiflex at Morley hasn't got it, then nobody has".
"With the sheer volume and range at Morley, we will provide an unbeatable choice for trade counter customers in Yorkshire, while our superstore's proximity to the M62 and M1 will allow easy access for customers from further afield".
As well as serving over-the-counter customers, Dunlop Hiflex offers same-day shipment from Morley of industrial and hydraulic hoses and fittings of all kinds.
The new operation, which is behind Asda in Morley, is also the company's training centre.
Invitations being sent out for the open day are also tickets for a prize draw which will take place on the day.
