Covers Timber and Builders Merchants has acquired NYEs Building Supplies.
NYEs’ depots in Kingsfold and Billingshurst, West Sussex will benefit from Covers’ extended range, especially of timber.
Welcoming NYEs to the Group, Rupert Green, chairman of Covers, said: “We are delighted to bring such a well-run local merchant with a strong brand and team into Covers. NYEs is a business that complements our different trading activities and geographical coverage in Sussex and Surrey.
“NYEs has a strong, loyal and well-established customer base, and will continue to trade as NYEs Building Supplies, part of the Covers Group. We look forward to maintaining its customer relationships, supporting the team to explore additional opportunities to grow the business, and offering new and current customers an increased product range.”
Former owner of NYEs David Nye said: “Having built the business over many years, the time has come to pass it on to a successful company that has similar family values. I am confident the NYEs’ team, and its customers will all flourish within Covers.”
