Local builders are Howdens' core customers and partners. A professional builder is a project manager, who typically has several projects on the go at any one time. Builders are also business people who need to make money. The more successfully we help them to trade, the more successfully we will trade.
Howdens helps builders to manage their businesses by supplying rigid cabinets, ready to install - from stock, locally, at the right price and on suitable terms. That means everyday low prices rather than promotions; a trade discount, which represents their margin; and a net monthly account, which helps them to manage cashflow.
Builders see the same faces in their local depot week in, week out. Across the country, around 250,000 professional customers know they can rely on Howdens to help solve their problems.
