For 37 years Harry Birtwhistle was chairman of Firwood Timber &amp; Plywood, sadly passing away at the age of 98 years old in December 2014.<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][vc_column]<div class=\"ult-spacer spacer-69e43abe88d4e\" data-id=\"69e43abe88d4e\" data-height=\"80\" data-height-mobile=\"40\" data-height-tab=\"60\" data-height-tab-portrait=\"60\" data-height-mobile-landscape=\"40\" style=\"clear:both;display:block;\"><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;]<div id=\"ultimate-heading-916469e43abe88d6c\" class=\"uvc-heading ult-adjust-bottom-margin ultimate-heading-916469e43abe88d6c uvc-2305 \" data-hspacer=\"no_spacer\"  data-halign=\"left\" style=\"text-align:left\"><div class=\"uvc-heading-spacer no_spacer\" style=\"top\"><\/div><div class=\"uvc-main-heading ult-responsive\"  data-ultimate-target='.uvc-heading.ultimate-heading-916469e43abe88d6c h2'  data-responsive-json-new='{\"font-size\":\"desktop:26px;\",\"line-height\":\"\"}' ><h2 style=\"font-family:&#039;Lato&#039;;font-weight:900;margin-bottom:30px;\">OUR BUILDERS MERCHANTS<\/h2><\/div><div class=\"uvc-sub-heading ult-responsive\"  data-ultimate-target='.uvc-heading.ultimate-heading-916469e43abe88d6c .uvc-sub-heading '  data-responsive-json-new='{\"font-size\":\"\",\"line-height\":\"desktop:24px;\"}'  style=\"font-weight:normal;margin-bottom:30px;\">In the early 1980\u2019s, following Peter\u2019s success in the timber importing business, the Company expanded opening its first builder\u2019s merchants in Burscough. Still extremely successful and one of our busiest merchants, Burscough has become a local landmark with its huge yellow hangar. With our winning formula of great products and service, Firwood expanded at a rate of knots, opening further branches in Southport and West Houghton.<\/p>\n<p>In the early 1990\u2019s we continued our drive to bring successful branches to the North West.\u00a0 We acquired a very popular local business in Lowes Forbes along with their three branches, two in Blackpool and one in Preston. Through the 1990\u2019s we continued opening branches in Swinton, Prestwich, Moreton and Crosby, and again in the early 2000\u2019s saw the addition of Seaforth which was another successful family business we acquired.<\/p>\n<p>In 2006 we took over the Upholland Branch from the renown Holland\u2019s of Upholland which again fitted our successful small family business ethos. The newest member of the Firwood Builders Merchant family is our Formby branch. Having acquired the oldest established garage in Lancashire we really had a desire to pay tribute to the heritage of the site whilst bringing much needed local jobs and services to the area.\u00a0 Our Formby branch is now a unique drive through Builders Merchants, an order and collect service which is proving be to a triumphant success.\u00a0 This brand new \u2018drive through\u2019 concept in Builders Merchant\u2019s was an idea conceived by our Managing Director Jane.<\/p>\n<p>The timber importing business; which still forms a significant part of the civil sales business today together with 11 Builders Merchants across the North West of England makes up the Company\u2019s main services. Our national civil\/construction industry business now offers daily deliveries covering the whole of the UK, using our own reliable well maintained fleet, guaranteeing our customer promise of\u00a0<em>On Time!
