Screwfix

Screwfix is a British multi-channel retailer selling tools, hardware, and building supplies primarily to tradespeople and serious DIY enthusiasts. Founded in 1979 as Woodscrew Supply Company, it initially focused on selling screws before expanding its product range.

Screwfix operates through a network of physical stores across the United Kingdom and Ireland, as well as through online and telephone ordering. The company is known for its fast and reliable delivery service, competitive pricing, and extensive product catalog.
