Jewson Launches Biggest Branch Yet in Luton

LAUNCHING its biggest branch in the UK, Jewson has officially opened the doors to its new Luton depot.

Hundreds of tradespeople got a first look at the new 6.5 acre branch, including over 11,000 products on site, the most in any Jewson branch across the country.

Biggest Branch Yet

The new branch features drive in loading, covered timber, a huge tool hire range, 24/7 collection lockers, electric vehicle chargers, extended workwear and power tool ranges, paint mixing, workwear printing, project estimating, and free food and drink for customers.

The branch is also home to Jewson’s first-ever Sustainability House, a full-scale mock home with products from its Building for the Future range. It aims to arm tradespeople with information and guidance on the latest regulations and environmental standards.

Darts legend James Wade, Sky Sports presenter Emma Paton, and Luton footballing heroes John Hartson, Tom Lockyer and Mick Harford, attended the opening and played games with guests.

Industry suppliers were on hand showcasing their most popular products, and Jewson is helping to combat tool theft, with a Tool Marking service available to customers.

Luke Samples, Jewson Luton’s Branch Director, said: “Our aim was to create a hub that truly raises the bar when it comes to merchanting, and the response we’ve seen so far shows that we’ve achieved that.”

The branch was officially opened by Councillor Amy Nicholls, the Mayor of Luton, who said, “By investing so significantly into this branch, Jewson is making a powerful statement that there is strong confidence in the construction sector.”

Jewson Luton is based at 226 Dallow Rd, Luton, LU1 1YB.
