Bradfords’ mission: ‘help people build’ has many connotations. During the early stages of the pandemic this meant offering a source for the products and materials which self-employed trades needed to keep working. Now, national, and global situations mean that our role to help people build is as important as ever, but that focus must be on looking at the broader context to ensure that we are enabling building beyond just the supply of materials.

With so much going on across the country and the globe I thought it would be helpful to confirm what is happening within Bradfords.  We have record levels of staff in the branches and have increased our focus on customer service and are developing a few key initiatives to improve the service we offer.

As we move through February, I thought it would be helpful to provide you with a Bradfords Business and Service update.  On Friday we were awarded ‘Builders Merchant of the Year’ and ‘Sustainable Initiative of the Year’ at the Builders Merchant News Awards in London. It is great to be recognised by your peers however it is you our customers that make us what we are – thank you.

As we start the year, I felt it would be amiss if I didn’t give you an update on the business.  Stock availability is good across most product sectors. Lightweight blocks continue to be a challenge and our buyers are working hard to find alternative supply routes.

Christmas is fast approaching, and like you we want to do our best to preserve the ability for us all to have the Christmas we were denied last year.  If you would prefer not to visit our branches, then please do give the branch a call to arrange for your products to be delivered.

Please find the latest update on all things Bradfords and details of climate change, building sustainable communities.  COP26 brought together the world’s leaders to tackle the issue of climate change head on. There is so much in the press now, and it is very difficult to know what is real and what is not. In the weeks and months ahead, we will cut through the jargon and help you make informed decisions on the best way to design, build and run homes in the future.

Welcome to my latest update on all things Bradfords as we head into Autumn.  Stock availability has remained flat but there are signs of some of the major supply issues easing. There is concern that haulage will continue to be a challenge right up to the end of the year.

Stock availability is improving however issues remain with chipboard flooring and lightweight blocks. Inflation continues with our cement supplier and plasterboard supplier advising of double digit increase in January 2022. We continue to challenge these rises to try to minimise the impact on the cost to you.

I want to keep you up to date on all things Bradfords.  The national driver shortage has been well publicised in the last few weeks. The good news is that Bradfords are well resourced, and we have increased our capacity, taking delivery of 10 LGV’s in the last couple of months. Our lead times remain at 1-2 days across the branch network.
