Builders Merchants Journal – BMJ Publishing to Builders Merchants and the UK merchanting industry for more than 95 years
Hull-based builders merchant MKM Building Supplies has officially opened its 60th branch.
The branch in Mansfield, which opened today (March 5) is the merchant’s second in Nottinghamshire, alongside MKM Retford. It features a full portfolio of products, including building materials, timber, joinery and roofing supplies, with free local delivery.
Heading up MKM Mansfield is an experienced duo of Branch Directors, Adrian Arnold and Tony Daynes. In addition to the 12 new job roles, four vehicles will be operating in Mansfield and the surrounding area, clad in MKM’s iconic yellow-and-blue branding.
Founded in 1995 by Executive Chairman David Kilburn, MKM’s strategic growth has taken on a significant momentum over the past few years, adding 15 new branches to its network in just over two years.
Kilburn said: “We’re absolutely delighted to be opening a milestone 60th branch here in Mansfield, especially so hot on the heels of our 50th. Despite the challenging national economic-political outlook, our success places us in the strong position to continue steadily growing our branch network.”
Tony Daynes, Branch Director at MKM Mansfield, said: “Our ethos will be about providing unbeatable customer service, a brilliant product range, and fantastic prices to local tradespeople and retail customers. This approach has helped MKM to expand to 60 branches, and it’s exactly what we intend to replicate in Mansfield.
