Noel Kegg Ltd are the current THS Tools "Member of the Year".
Established in 1975, the THS Tools Group is now the UK's largest buying group for independent distributors supplying a complete range of leading brand products to industry & tradesman via a network of over 130 distribution outlets all offering personal service and support.
They work in partnership with the world's leading brand and key product suppliers and manufacturers to source the best products at the most competitive prices to ensure that THS Member companies can focus on stock availability and deliver exceptional customer service levels to their end-user customers.
The THS Tools Group was formed in 1975 by Ken Yarker as a non-profit making organisation beginning with five forward thinking, independent dealers in an attempt to benefit from collective purchasing negotiation. Now, 30 years later the Group has grown into a network of over 130 distribution outlets with product offerings from over 160 approved suppliers. With its highly experienced sourcing and distribution specialists, the THS Tools Group has developed into much more than an effective industrial buying group.
The main strategy behind THS has allowed each of its Members to maintain their total independence, capitalise on their established reputation and utilise their local knowledge. The ability to compete with national distributors on price via THS' buying power and effective commercial terms with leading brand and key product suppliers, provides a level playing field for Members where they can differentiate their offer in terms of product availability and exceptional customer service. Additionally, with outlets all over the UK, THS Distributor Members provide nationwide coverage to end-user customers.
Collaboration is Key
THS understands that its success is attributed to its ability to develop solid working relationships with all parties involved - Members, Suppliers and end-user customers. As a non-profit making organisation, THS' business model is based on establishing effective collaborative solutions that bring substantial bottom-line savings for its Members to enable them to compete head-on with national distributor groups.
For suppliers, the major benefit of working in partnership with THS is that it provides a single gateway into a fragmented market that may otherwise be difficult and costly to reach considering the amount of valuable resources required to manage and administer each trading relationship. Having a network of over 130 distribution outlets, allows suppliers to maintain their customer reach and protect their market share.
Today, THS has demonstrated year on year growth despite some challenging economic conditions and continues to flourish with the continual addition of world-leading suppliers and brands to its extensive portfolio of products.
With THS, quality and assurance are guaranteed and their commitment to provide the best quality systems and processes to manage the relationships between Members and Suppliers is proven with LRQA ISO 9001 certification.
