Buck & Hickman, part of plumbing merchant and distribution group BSS, have a new trade counter brand for builders, DIYers and tradesmen.
The first ‘Tooltastic’ counter service opened in Southampton and is the first of 15 due to be rolled out across the country this year.
The name ‘Tooltastic’ has been chosen to attract a wider range of customers who might not have used a Buck & Hickman branded branch in the past
The new ‘Tooltastic’ trade counters will carry an extensive range of hand tools, power tools, consumables and PPE designed specifically for the busy tradesman and serious DIYer. A website is also under development.
Sales and operations director Joe Roberts said: “The launch of ‘Tooltastic’ symbolises an exciting move for Buck & Hickman whereby we can appeal to a broader market. ‘Tooltastic’ is an important service for DIYers and tradesmen who are looking for extensive stock availability, supported by the experience and expertise which is intrinsic to the Buck & Hickman heritage.”
