Minster opens new branch

Minster is opening a new branch in Leeds. The 26,000 square foot outlet is located on a two acres site at Lake Terrace in Hunslet – adjacent to sister distributor Jewson Civils Frazer.

The opening of the new branch forms part of Minster’s expansion strategy, it will amplify the specialist distributor’s capacity to support projects across the Yorkshire area. The opening of the branch has also created six new jobs in the area encompassing both commercial and driver roles, increasing the network of specialist Minster branches to 26 across England, Wales and Scotland.

David Furlong, regional director at Minster said: “We’re really excited about the opening of our new Leeds branch and the opportunities it will create.  Construction in Leeds and the wider Yorkshire region is thriving and there is huge demand for our specialist solutions.  Having a central base in the area has been one of our strategic goals for some time and will enhance our ability to provide our unrivalled support and expertise to local projects.”

“In terms of accessibility, the location of the Leeds branch is great, it is only 10 minutes from the city centre and is adjacent to the local motorway network. Being situated alongside Jewson Civils Frazer is another major plus. It will enhance our ability to collaborate with one another and service our shared customers more effectively supporting our growth ambitions.”
