Higgins Building Supplies is staging a special competition for its 150th birthday, offering one customer the chance to win the keys to a brand new Vauxhall Combo van.

The competition is part of a wider series of events and initiatives planned throughout 2016 to mark Higgins' 150th year. The company is also running other special promotions and offering commemorative merchandising.

Managing director Nigel Higgins, said: "150 years in business is a major milestone which warrants some equally major celebrations; our competition reflects that. We hope it will foster the same excitement amongst our customer-base that we feel as we celebrate our 150th year."
