South West independent builders merchant Bradfords Building Supplies has bought Archmartin Ltd, which trades as Solo Building Supplies.
Operating from one site in Penzance, South West Cornwall, the acquisition of Solo Building Supplies improves Bradfords’ branch coverage in the area and provides a great opportunity to serve other nearby towns.
Solo has been trading for almost 10 years and is a general builder’s merchant specialising in building materials, timber, landscaping, and plumbing and heating products with the added benefit of a bathroom and tile showroom in a separate adjacent building on the same site.
Bradfords Building Supplies managing director, David Young said: ‘I am delighted to welcome Solo into the Bradfords family. The two businesses are a great fit – Bradfords will benefit from Solo’s geographic location, customer base and expertise whilst Solo will be able to grow and develop its potential as part of a bigger business.
Solo becomes the 43rd branch in the Bradfords Building Supplies network.
