Champion Timber, the South-East’s leading true timber merchant, has announced the opening of its tenth branch, where tradespeople can expect to find the brand’s usual, exceptional range of timber products and accessories.
On Tuesday 28 June, the new branch, which will be located in Weybridge, will open its doors for a day of celebration and will be offering customers complimentary refreshments from a vintage style posh burger van and free goody bags.
The new branch carries large stocks and vast ranges of both softwood and hardwood timber, plywood, MDF sheets and mouldings, decking, flooring and much more. In addition, Champion Timber can offer a full cutting service, and of course with excellent customer service, will help to carry the timber to a van!
Special raffle tickets will be available over the first week of opening with the first prize being a thrilling VIP driving experience at Mercedes-Benz Brooklands. Proceeds from the sale of the tickets will be donated to Shooting Star Chase, a leading children’s hospice charity caring for babies, children and young people with life-limiting conditions, and their families.
Visitors will also have the opportunity to meet and sponsor Yard Sales Manager, Kraig Seymour, who is fearlessly taking part in two extreme challenges over the summer to raise extra funds for Shooting Star Chase. Kraig will be bravely abseiling down the Spinnaker Tower in Portsmouth and doing a parachute jump.
Between 4.00pm and 6.00pm Branch Manager Kevin Simper will be officially opening the branch with a ribbon cutting ceremony. Kevin, Kraig and the team at the new Weybridge branch will be on hand to answer any customer questions, while the Champion’s Angels, a fleet of branded trikes, will also be parked up at the new branch to hand out branded goodies and event attendees can have their photo taken with them.
Mike Bird, Director of Marketing, says: “We are all very proud of our brand and opening our tenth branch is a great achievement, and would like to invite all tradespeople along to our special event on 28 June to see the great variety of unrivalled quality timber sold by Champion. There will be special discounts on in-branch for the whole week with usual trading times of 7.30am – 5.00pm in operation.”
