The new branch replaces Jewson's previous location in Alnwick.
STARK Group has strengthened its presence in the North East of England with the opening of a new purpose-built Jewson branch in Alnwick.
The investment is part of the Group's ongoing development of its UK branch network, consolidating smaller locations into larger and more efficient branches closer to customers.
The new branch replaces Jewson's previous location in Alnwick and has been developed around the needs of local builders and tradespeople. It brings together a broad product range, specialist expertise and modern facilities in one location, giving customers better access to the materials and services they need in their day-to-day work.
The opening reflects the transformation STARK Group continues to drive across its UK business despite a challenging market. The focus is on strengthening the local presence and creating more efficient solutions for customers.
Søren P. Olesen, Group CEO of STARK Group, said: "Across our markets, we continuously invest in strengthening our customer offering through a modern and efficient branch network. In some locations, this means replacing older branches with larger, purpose-built branches that allow us to offer a broader product range and more efficient logistics solutions. Alnwick is a good example of how we are investing close to our customers while strengthening our long-term market position."
The investment in Alnwick is part of STARK Group's broader work to strengthen its commercial concepts and improve operational efficiency. In the UK and Germany, the Group is also developing product ranges and distribution networks based on experience from the Nordic markets.
