Fixings firm expands with city showroom move
19th December 2011
A move to landmark, refurbished premises close to Leicester city centre will enable a prominent Leicester fixings firm to expand.
DFS Fixings has launched a new outlet in Foundry Square, off Belgrave Gate, in refurbished former car showrooms acquired by leading Leicester commercial property specialist Andrew and Ashwell.
The new premises provides over 8,500 sq ft of ground floor space, comprising a showroom, office and storage for the growing firm, designed to raise the company profile and create a springboard for further growth. This is the firm’s second move in two years, having previously relocated from All Saints Road to Abbey Lane and now adding a third more capacity for the presentation and storage of stock. The firm also aims to recruit further staff, including sales representatives.
DFS Fixings is a long-established fastener, fixings and powertools supplier with a reputation for infallible supply and first class service to the construction industry and allied trades. Unique selling points are high quality customer service and the firm’s ability to supply rare or unique products off the shelf.
With extensive experience in the business Managing Director Geoff Kirk is committed to ensuring tradesmen find exactly what they need to complete a proper job.
“We are keen to offer the most comprehensive ranges. The new showroom allows us to display key products, with ample space to store a vast range of items, helping us to deliver the first class customer service we are dedicated to provide,” he said.
Malcolm Grayson, Director at Andrew and Ashwell commented: “This is an excellent move for DFS Fixings, as the new premises is in a regenerating area of the city earmarked for progress. The refurbishment has added a new lease of life to the district and will help launch DFS successfully into the future.”
