Generations

I first started Glosrose back in 1976, how time has flown by. The company has steadily grown and I have always believed that a strong family environment has been important to our success. Many of my own immediate and extended family work at Glosrose and have done for many years, and this has always given us a strong foundation.

I am proud to say, I see the whole of Glosrose as one big family. We are a team that works hard together and has maintained family values along the way.

Our sales philosophy

Here at Glosrose we are proud of our reputation and the business we have built so successfully on partnerships and relationships. It is no secret that within the past decade our National Competitors have rationalised and moved their supply ever further from their customers. This lack of presence and personal service is where Glosrose Group differs. We're still a family owned business with the ability to make decisions locally and tailor them to your requirements.

With fierce competition and the luxury of standby equipment a thing of the past, we fully understand the need for flexibility, quality service and the right mix of equipment to support your business. That’s why our philosophies consist of a multi-branded approach, good local service, experienced local staff and above all the willingness to understand. So with over 100 years of equipment sales and support experience, I believe Glosrose Group will continue to provide quality solutions to both local and national businesses throughout the next century.
