Williams & Co Croydon Branch

Trade Only plumbing and heating supplies. We will never knowingly serve retail customers. Single no - haggle prices, everyone pays the same.

Founded by Mick Williams in 1972, the company was a traditional local independent merchants for many years. In more recent years, the combination of great prices on the best products backed up by exceptional service has catapulted the company forwards to become a major regional independent and one of the fastest growing merchants in the UK.

Whilst other merchants may offer a confusing mess of price lists and discounts, we simply publish our best trade price, and charge the same price to every trade customer. If we get a deal from a manufacturer, then it is available to all our customers. All we ask is that, if we don’t know you, you are patient whilst we verify your trade status, as we do not deal with retail customers.

We have been recognised by the London Stock Exchange as one of the UK’s 1000 most inspiring businesses several times, including this year, and in 2018 one of Europe’s 1000 most inspriring businesses.
The company was acquired from the Williams family by a consortium of management and staff in 2015, and most staff are now also shareholders. We are proud of our commitment to paying a living wage, and to sharing the profits of the business with those who work hard in it.
2019 got off to a great start when we came 76th in The Sunday Times top 100 ‘Best Companies to Work for’ poll and we just kept growing – opening our 38th trade counter in Harlow, expanding our delivery area and bringing our awesome Same Day Every Day service to the west country.
