Morgan said: “it’s fantastic to have been chosen by Toolstation to facilitate their desire to provide its customers with windows and doors. We have seen a growing appetite for more and more retailers and builders’ merchants to expand their range of products online using Drop Ship Vending (DSV). The growth of platforms such as Virtual Stock and Market Places generally is a fantastic indication of the sector’s continuing confidence, and desire to play its part in the country’s economic recovery - which in our case is also linked to energy saving and heat retention”.
Kevin added: “We know more businesses are keen to join the DSV movement and so we have been developing our direct to site offer, investing in delivery tracking technology and expanding our new energy efficient delivery vehicles.”
Toolstation Category Manager, Monica Cleere commented, “We are delighted to be working closely with Crystal-Direct who have a proven track record for delivering excellent products and services. This continues Toolstation’s mission of expand the depth of our product range and continuing to give customers plenty of choice at great value.”
