TOOLBANK, BOLTON
Toolbank's Great Northern attracts all the big names
INDUSTRY leading retailers, buyers and builder merchants descended on Toolbank’s one-day-only Great Northern Show at Bolton Wanderers’ Macron Stadium on April 26th. The event showcased the latest and best new kit for the tool trade sector.
The expo highlighted the tool industry’s biggest brands: including sector giants Hitachi, FLEX, Milwaukee, and Stanley, writes SAMUEL McKEOWN.
The Toolbank exhibition is perceived as the most important northern show in the annual tool industry calender by many, as it brings together all the leading players.
Hitachi's Area Manager for Scotland, Donald Young said: “At Bolton’s Toolbank show, we promoted Hitachi’s full tool range and we received a lot of positive feedback.
“Toolbank shows are always well attended with a good set of customers, and a diverse range of products from all exhibitors.
“Particularly the Bolton show - every time I’ve been there, it has always been well attended and even attracts a lot of customers from Scotland.” Stuart Colclough, UK Sales Manager for Flex Tools, said: “Toolbank Bolton was a chance for Flex to demonstrate the capabilities of our new eccentric polisher FLEX XFE 7-15 150.
“The product takes 18 volt batteries and it is a world fi rst - there isn’t a single manufacturer that makes one except Flex. The reason why we launched, was because the vehicle detailer market demanded it.
“The product is a unique buff er, as it is designed to leave zero swirl marks or holograms. Because of these attributes, the XFE attracted a lot of interest from attendees at Toolbank Bolton and we’ve sold orders to dealers off the back of the show.
"I think a record number of people attended the event – so we’ll be attending again next year.”
