Six-figure deal lays foundations for builders’ merchants move

Pudsey-based Farmac Building Supplies is set to relocate to a newly purchased site with the help of a six-figure funding package.

The funding from HSBC will enable Farmac Building Supplies to purchase and relocate to larger premises in the market town.

The new site offers over 45,000 sq ft of space, significantly increasing the building merchant’s stock capacity.

In addition, the business plans to expand its workforce over the next three years.

James Beverley, co-owner of Farmac Building Supplies, said: “We’re very proud of what we’ve achieved at our current Pudsey premises over the last 12 years. To be able to supply such a range of products, whilst maintaining a strong quality of service, has always been our main focus. When it came to upscaling operations, it was integral we found a site that could increase capacity and allow us to uphold our values. HSBC’s funding has helped us achieve all of this, and we can’t wait to get started at our new home.”

Jo Dickinson, HSBC’s area director for South and West Yorkshire, said: “Farmac Building Supplies is a well-respected local building merchant. In an industry where quality and service is key, this business has a valuable reputation as a reliable and consistent supplier. We’re delighted to able to support their growth and look forward to our future working relationship.”
