Leading cash & carry wholesaler Stax Trade Centres, is celebrating 30 successful years of supporting the trade this October, with an array of activities in and around the branches.
Billed as a ‘30 Year Thank You,’ Stax are promoting an unbelievable number of top deals, as well as giving away some fantastic prizes as a thank you to their loyal customer base. These include a brand new Vauxhall Vivaro van fully loaded with Unibond stock, worth over £18,000, a LG 47” 3D TV, Apple iPad 2, and much more.
Stax first opened its doors on 27th October 1981 in Manchester and has since expanded to a total of 5 branches across the UK, with the recent addition of Stax Edinburgh.
Over the years Stax has faced many highs, and a couple of lows, but as Joint Managing Director David Hibbert points out, the company’s success is down to a strong triangular relationship,
“For over 30 years we have maintained a simple policy of providing quality for less, whether that be our products or our service, but without the backing of our suppliers, and of course such great loyal customers, we couldn’t have survived and achieved so much.”
Hibbert, continued,
“We really wanted to send a thank you message particularly to our customers, so the best way is to give them scores of great deals and throw in some amazing prizes to the mix! Through the Shop & Win promotion their loyalty will be rewarded, with one lucky customer even walking away with an £18,000 van full of Unibond stock!”
Customers shopping at Stax from late September to 4th November will be able to play along with the Shop & Win game.
