Selco Builders Warehouse is set to extend its branch network from its current number of 73 to 100 by the end of 2026, increasing its selling space by more than one million square feet.
Part of the Grafton Group, Selco has undergone a major expansion over the last decade by more than doubling in size and now plans to further accelerate that growth.
Having recently opened branches in Liverpool, Orpington, Canning Town, Rochester and Exeter, Selco will also have a presence in Cheltenham and Peterborough over the coming months.
Selco chief executive Howard Luft, pictured, said: “This is an exciting time for all connected with Selco and the latest plans for expansion will have economic benefits right across the UK.
“We currently have a very strong branch presence across London, Manchester and Birmingham and, as well as further bolstering those heartlands and other areas of the country where we have branches, we will also be taking the unique Selco offering into new towns and cities.
“Along with our ever-growing digital presence, we want to provide a flexible and multi-channel offering to tradespeople who are able to enjoy the benefits Selco provides – unrivalled availability, with the widest range of products in stock, as well as excellent customer service and trade pricing.”
Each new branch will lead to at least 30 in-store vacancies while additional business-wide functions will also be created at the company’s support centre in Birmingham, a statement added.
