Cheshire-based Scott Brothers Ltd Celebrates Substantial Business Growth and Record Sales in the Retail Market

(2 September, 2011) Scott Brothers Ltd., the specialist distributor of storage products for the home, today announced that the company has experienced increasing success, growing by over 130% in the last two years.  June 2011 has proven to be the most successful month in Scott Brothers’ history as the company expands its product range to become a ‘one stop shop’, accommodating the storage needs of every home. This achievement is testament to the hardworking and dedicated team within Scott Brothers and the company’s commitment to invest in and retain the best employees in the industry. This was recently recognised by the achievement of an Investors in People (IIP) award, which places Scott Brothers among the top UK companies, with only a small proportion achieving this award on the first attempt.



Since its inception in 1996 Scott Brothers Ltd has expanded its product range to become the specialist distributor of storage products for all areas of the home, providing storage solutions for the garage, kitchen, bedroom and living room. Scott Brothers is the largest supplier of branded vacuum storage bags in the UK and holds a unique position as the distributor of both leading brands in this segment – Pack-Mate and Space Bag. In addition, the company also distributes the Ordinett soft storage range, including suit hangers and colourful storage boxes to suit every home. Another successful product is the Racor storage range, which consists of various wall mounts, racks and hangers to store bikes and gardening and car cleaning products in sheds and garages.


As the business has grown, Scott Brothers Ltd is now supplying products to high profile customers such as Argos, B&Q and Lakeland, as well as developing distributions within leading supermarkets including Tesco, Asda and Aldi.


While the company has experienced a considerable amount of growth, the number of Scott Brothers employees has remained the same, showing the hard work and commitment of the Scott Brothers team. Scott Brothers was recently awarded IIP status in just one attempt, following a rigorous review process. This award is a goal that thousands of employers hope to achieve each year and is given to companies who provide a positive working environment and show commitment to continuous business improvement through their employees. Scott Brothers was particularly praised for its clear communication of team vision and the openness of the management team, which strives to encourage team input into decision making.


Duncan Pratt-Thompson, Director at Scott Brothers comments, “We are delighted that we have been awarded IIP status in just our first attempt and that our employees feel valued and supported within the workplace. This new award complements the ISO 9001 standard which we are also accredited with and highlights our commitment to attracting, developing and retaining the right people to help grow the business. We have experienced increasing success in recent years, culminating in record sales in May and June 2011. We look forward to the exciting future ahead and I would like to thank our dedicated team for their efforts.”
