Although Supply UK remains easily the smallest company in the Top Ten, its most recent accounts (for the year ended 30 April 2013) show very strong growth with revenues up by more than a quarter and profits before tax doubling to £1.2m.


Richard Coffey reports that 2013 signalled a new phase of development for Supply UK after four years of restructuring, repositioning and satisfactory, albeit limited, growth. He attributes the recent growth to investment in specialist divisions, which now account for approaching 50% of the company’s revenues.


Alongside its conventional tool hire operations, Supply UK has established three clearly defined and complementary divisions, Force 3 (which is a specialist hire service, supplying temporary heating and lighting for the Damage Restoration industry), Water Services, which works directly with water authorities (clients include Thames Water, United Utilities, Severn Trent, Yorkshire Water), and Survey & Laser.


Richard Coffey says “geographical growth will continue to be highly selective and driven by strategic locations, major customers and contracts. In addition, niche products, underpinned by sole distribution agreements, are playing an important role in the company’s growth and the development of Supply’s customer base. Overall the business has made great progress over the past year and the reported financials indicate a company emerging from the recession rather redefined and well positioned to build upon an order book growing with long term contracts and exciting national partnerships.”
