We’re delighted to share that Stax Trade Centres has been crowned Joint Winner – Wholesaler of the Year at the 2025 DIY Week Awards, held on Friday 23rd May at the Grand Connaught Rooms in London.
Published 28th May 2025

Now in its 14th year, the DIY Week Awards is a standout event in the industry calendar, celebrating excellence across the DIY, home improvement, and garden sectors. Organised by Datateam Business Media, the awards are particularly meaningful as winners are chosen via public vote, reflecting the support and trust of both customers and suppliers.
Representing Stax at the ceremony were David Hibbert (Joint Managing Director) and Nigel Wright (Operations Director), who proudly accepted the award on behalf of the company.
“This award is a fantastic recognition of the incredible teams working across our branches and at Head Office,” said David Hibbert.
“Stax has supported retailers in the DIY and garden sectors for more than 40 years, and we’re so proud that our customers and suppliers helped us achieve this recognition. While the way we operate continues to evolve, one thing hasn’t changed - our commitment to putting our customers first. We’ll keep driving innovation to ensure we meet their needs now and in the future.”
A huge thank you to everyone who took the time to vote for us and continue to support what we do. We’re honoured to be recognised and excited for what’s ahead!
