Robert Price has announced the acquisition of Lliw Building Supplies, further strengthening its presence across South Wales.

Founded in 1991, Lliw Building Supplies has built a reputation for supplying building materials and delivering service throughout the Swansea Valley and surrounding areas. This strong customer focus will continue unchanged from the depot in Pontardawe, as the Monmouthshire-based merchant works to ensure a smooth and efficient integration into the Robert Price Group.

Robert Price currently operates 31 sites across South Wales and Herefordshire, comprising 20 traditional merchant yards alongside a number of specialist branches. These include six roofing centres, two timber specialists, kitchen and bathroom showrooms, a Sustainable Energy Centre, an insulation division, and an agricultural supplies branch. The Group operates under the Robert Price, Tudors, and Gower Timber brands.

William Godfrey, Managing Director of Robert Price, commented: "Robert Price and Lliw represent a particularly harmonious partnership. As a local, family business, Lliw Building Supplies shares many of Robert Price’s core principles, particularly a strong relationship with our loyal customer base, a trusted presence within our local communities, and a valued and committed workforce. We look forward to building on these strengths as we integrate the Lliw business into our own."
