Builders merchant opens in Morecambe following six-figure investment

Haldane Fisher, the UK-wide chain of timber and building merchants, has opened its new Morecambe branch following a £250,000 investment.

The site, located at the former Broadoak Home and Garden Centre premises, was officially opened as part of a celebratory event attended by staff, partners, customers and leading local figures.

The development of this new branch forms part of Haldane Group’s long-term growth strategy, which will see over £50m spent on whole group development over the next five years.

Simon Walling, who leads the Haldane Fisher brand in England and the Isle of Man, along with timber distributor GE Robinson, said: "We are delighted to open our new branch in Morecambe, further strengthening our presence in Lancashire.

“This follows the refurbishment of our branch in Garstang, which experienced a £600,000 redevelopment to increase the product range and enhance the ironmongery and door offering.”
