Customers Stream To Screwfix.com For Screwfix Live 2020

Screwfix’s flagship event, Screwfix Live, went virtual at the end of September with thousands visiting Screwfix.com for a week of exclusive content, lowest-ever price deals and live competitions.

The 7-day event was hosted by Jacqui Oatley and featured interviews and challenges with EFL stars, Lee Hendrie, Paul Dickov, Danny Cowley, Dean Windass and Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink.

During Screwfix Live, Sean Matthews was crowned Screwfix Top Tradesperson 2020 and walked away with the coveted title and the ultimate £20k trade bundle. The Carpenter and Joiner from Caerphilly impressed the judges with his exceptional craftsmanship, attention to detail and fantastic approach to customer service.

The event also included product demonstrations from suppliers including DeWalt, Mira, Wagner, Google Nest and more. Google Digital Garage also hosted lunchtime learning sessions that provided business and individuals with valuable information on the digital world.

Mind, the mental health charity, interviewed ex-Aston Villa star Lee Hendrie about his challenges and delivered an insightful session on the importance of looking after your health and wellbeing.

John Mewett, Screwfix CEO said: “I would like to say a huge thank you to our suppliers, partners and colleagues for their support in making Screwfix Live a huge success as our first ever virtual event. We know how much our customers love Screwfix Live and we really felt it was important to bring the much-loved event to them online. We’re delighted with the response and it was great to see so many customers getting involved with the daily competitions, whilst getting their hands on some fantastic deals.”
