Following six years with Grant & Son, firstly in Pinner, north-west London and latterly in Slough, he brings a wealth of merchanting experience to the role.
The Bury St Edmunds’ branch, along with Kent Blaxill in Colchester, was acquired by the Independent Builders Merchants Group (IBMG) 12 months ago. Since then, it has expanded its product offering to include extensive heavy side building products, hardware and landscaping, as well as introducing an entirely new roofing line. A new bathroom showroom is also being unveiled in July.
“I’m delighted to lead a fabulous team of 11 here at the Arras Road branch,” said Mr Welch. “There is plenty of opportunity for growth, and customer feedback on the developments we’ve made so far has been hugely positive.”
