Grommets opens brand-new despatch and administration centre

Grommets opens brand-new despatch and administration centre

We are delighted to announce the opening of our brand-new despatch and administration centre. Built over two floors’ Grommets House provides around 364² metres of office and storage space replacing the rather cramped space occupied previously. With all stock under one roof, we anticipate much faster order turn around times for stock items. We will also be able to move our tool making machines into the original office space.

The official opening was on Monday 13th November which would have been our founder, Sid Wells, 88th birthday. Sid’s sister, Shirley, cut the ribbon in front of friends, family, designers, and contractors.

MD Joanne Boorsma reflected on all the company has achieved since the early days and thanked all involved in making our dream a reality.
