BSS INDUSTRIAL OPENS FIRST NEW BRANCH FOR SIX YEARS

17 March 2009

Leading supplier of pipeline and heating solutions BSS Industrial is bucking a trend in the midst of the credit crunch by investing in a new trade counter located in Portsmouth.

The location has been chosen to meet demand from the growing marine industry, a sector in which BSS Industrial has strengthened its offering after its specialist brands joined together in 2008. The branch is also the first new stand alone branch to be opened by the Company since 2003 and has already created 6 jobs.

Tom Wilson, BSS Industrial Business Development Director, said: “The marine industry is one of a number of growth sectors in which we are strengthening our position. The opening of this new branch will not only better position us to service the contracts on the south coast, but is also a statement that BSS Industrial is performing well as a business.”

Customers to BSS Portsmouth will receive the same next day delivery service on stock orders as other branches nationwide, as well as having access to the Company’s specialist support and after sales service.

BSS Industrial is part of The BSS Group plc, a market leading distributor to specialist trades. BSS Portsmouth is located at Unit D4 Discovery, Voyager Park, Portfield Road, Airport Industrial Estate, Hilsea, Portsmouth, PO3 5FL.
