BEW Electrical Expansion Continues

BEW Electrical are delighted to announce and proud to present our new branch centrally located in Orpington Kent.

Situated in an idyllic location close to the main A20 road, the site formerly housed an electrical wholesaler, which is what this area was missing. We have totally renovated the site, which was in need of some TLC. The trade counter looks fantastic and as with all BEW branches, the stores are fully loaded with proprietary branded stocks. The Orpington branch team is lead by brothers Nigel Collick (Branch Manager) and Gary Collick (Operations Manager) who have over 40 combined years experience in the industry and once upon a time ran this very site for Wilts.

As a company, we offer a wide range of energy efficient products which help our customers and in turn, the end user, to keep their energy costs low while at the same time helping to reducing their carbon footprint. The new branch gave us the opportunity to practice what we preach. We, therefore, set out to make the branch as green as possible. Many of the very latest energy saving solutions and equipment were used. If it’s good enough for our customers then its good enough for us! Some of the innovations featured in the new Branch include movement and daylight sensors, alongside special low wattage tubes throughout the warehouse and offices to reduce energy usage. In conjunction with Halers, the general illumination of the Trade Counter is LED all the way. Why not pop into the Branch and see these innovations in action?

The Branch has ample parking and is already doing a brisk trade. Please feel free to call into the new branch to meet Nigel and Gary and their team. BEW are proud to be opening a branch in such difficult times, giving proof of further investment in our people, our stock and our customers.
