The past two years have been a difficult time for the industry as it faced Brexit challenges, the Covid-19 pandemic, stock shortages, price increases, and an upsurge in demand. By working together, the HTBS network of branches was able to provide solutions for all its customers and help trade clients to keep their businesses running. The support functions worked closely with the branches to source the most in-demand products at the best possible price and keep customers informed of when key stock, such as garden sleepers, would be available. This allowed DIY and trade customers to plan their projects, place orders, and use their time efficiently.
