Major expansion for Weru UK following significant licensing deal
Family run, Blackpool-based Weru UK – a distributor for Weru – Germany’s market leader in windows and doors, is consolidating its business with major geographical expansion, following a significant licensing deal with Weru Group Germany. The business based at Amy Johnson Way, Squires Gate and established 33 years ago, now serves a UK wide client base, and to strengthen its operation it’s launching the Weru UK Network. This notable move is expected to take the new UK group sales from approximately £4.5 million annually of ‘installed windows and doors’ to over £8 million in 2020. Managed and supported from the heavily invested-in national support centre at their impressive 8000 ft2 Blackpool site, the Weru UK Network will see accredited partners, once fully vetted and trained to the highest standards, offering developers and home owners in a specific catchment, a complete windows and doors solution.
Kate Lindsay, Sales Director at Weru UK comments; “From multi-million pound homes and commercial developments to cottages, we have completed over 18,000 Weru installations since we established the business over three decades ago. The Weru ethos behind producing the finest German quality products has a similar unrivalled approach to installation and customer service. This has created, and is continuing to create, significant UK-wide demand. We have already installed numerous Weru windows countrywide as far afield as Jersey, Orkney, Cornwall, Isle of Man and the decision to develop a full UK management and support centre is a natural progression. We are now looking to recruit suitable trade and retail partners to join in our success. We will be providing full facilities for sales and all technical matters with our new support centre for businesses looking to capitalise on the new build and renovation sector, majoring on Eco Houses and high performance triple glazing and security features.”
With over 30 Target areas for new accredited partners available, Weru UK is already assisted by other long established Weru UK Partners in Cheshire (Weru Eddisbury Construction) and the South coast Weru in Bexill. Also they now have Weru UK Network partners up and running in Derby (Abbey Glass) and new starters in Tonbridge and Glasgow soon to be launched.
The family business was established in 1985 and Graham Lindsay still heads up the operation along with his daughter Kate, and their professional team that have amassed significant experience in making continental windows reach their true potential within UK homes and commercial buildings. Weru UK will be showcasing the Weru UK Network to potential partners from the window industry at the FIT Show at the NEC, being held 21-23 May.
