GAP launches new product guide
New product guide from leading roofline stockist GAP is the most comprehensive guide to building plastics in the industry.
Mark Adams, Joint Managing Director of GAP Forthside comments: "We've already received positive feedback from customers.
The new trade centre is a great opportunity for us to offer the same high level of service that is synonymous with GAP in England, but tailoring it to meet the specific needs of the Scottish market.
"We've introduced a number of initiatives, such as new IT systems to accurately measure stock, a new warehouse layout (to locate products quickly and easily), a third vehicle and driver and new products including laminated cills, skirting and architraves.
I'm confident we have the most comprehensive range of cellular PVC in Scotland.
These investments mean more customers get what they want when they want it." Mark continues: "We've had a lot of support from all of the guys at GAP to get the trade centre up and running so quickly.
These are exciting times and everybody at GAP Forthside is delighted to be playing their part.
As a team we're all working hard for our customers, striving to improve.
GAP's cellular sales are up 80% year on year in a slow market - and the new trade centre will only add to this.".
