Updates to our Sales Offices - 3rd April 2020

Message to Customers - 24 March 2020

Dear Customers,

Having had the address from our Prime Minister Boris Johnson last night we wanted to inform you of our position as it stands today.

Most, if not all, of the Prime Minister’s request for closures focused on retail outlets and shops but having sought further clarifications from the government’s guidance, we can establish the following;

• Hardware stores can remain open - trade outlets still need to supply builders & plumbers with their essential needs.
  
• Under the heading, Advice for the housing & building maintenance industries. ‘If you are working on site, you can continue to do so’. Robert Jenrick - UK Housing Minister
  

We are continuing to work through the implications for our business to ensure that both our colleagues and customers are protected. We fully intend to continue to supply our customers however due to various constraints now in place, due to the Corona virus, we will operate with a reduced number of staff in our sites as much as possible to reduce the risks and improve the safety of our people. Regrettably we will therefore need to reduce our deliveries to 2 days per week.

For the time being we will be unable to supply product which is bulky and requires 2 person manual handling although this will be kept under review. 

In an effort to continue to provide a service to customers, it would be helpful if the following procedures could be followed:

1. Where possible all orders should be placed online at: primaflowfandp.co.uk
   
2. At this stage we don’t have any ability to process faxed orders please, in the first instance, use our online website or alternatively Email your order to your normal sales office.
   
3. Please help us to keep phone lines open for urgent calls only.
   
4. If you do need assistance please contact your Account Manager.
   

I am sure that you understand the situation is constantly evolving, and we will ensure that all our customers are kept informed about our plans and services on a regular basis.

In the meantime, please take care and stay safe.
