Screwfix Welshpool: Your local trade partner in the heart of the community

In the latest in our Business in Focus features, we meet the team at Screwfix Welshpool.

Open since May 2025, Screwfix Welshpool has quickly become the go-to destination for local tradespeople and serious DIYers - serving the community with speed, convenience and an unbeatable product range.

Screwfix is proud to celebrate the continued success of its Welshpool store, which has rapidly established itself as the first port of call for local tradespeople and serious DIYers across the area.

Located at Severn Farm Industrial Estate, Screwfix Welshpool is open seven days a week, giving tradespeople everything they need to get their jobs done - quickly, affordably and right first time.

With access to over 70,000 products, customers can order over the phone, online, via the app or in store.

The store’s Click & Collect service means customers can pick up their goods in as little as one minute.

Store Manager Michelle Michelle, Store Manager at Screwfix Welshpool, said: “Since taking over as store manager in January, I’ve been blown away by the support we’ve received from the local community. We pride ourselves on offering ultra-convenience, exceptional customer service, quality products and great value, and it’s fantastic to see that resonating with so many people in Welshpool.

“Our team of eight colleagues works hard every day to make sure every customer gets the right product, right advice, and the fastest possible service. Whether you’re a professional tradesperson with a job to finish or a serious DIYer tackling a home project, we’re here to help. Come down, grab a coffee on us and check us out!”

Rooted in the Welshpool Community

The Welshpool team is deeply connected to its local community and takes an active role in giving back. In 2025, the store raised over £950 for the Screwfix Foundation, including a sponsored climb of Snowdon, helping local charities and not-for-profits repair and improve their facilities.

Local registered charities are welcome to apply for funding from The Screwfix Foundation by visiting the store to pick up a leaflet, or by downloading an application form at www.screwfixfoundation.com

Thanks to Screwfix’s partnership with the British Heart Foundation, Screwfix Welshpool is also equipped with a life-saving defibrillator, available to the community to respond promptly to emergencies. As with all Screwfix stores across the UK, this provision underscores the retailer’s commitment to the wellbeing of the communities it serves

Sustainability and Lower Carbon Operations

As part of Screwfix’s ongoing commitment to reducing carbon emissions, all new stores are equipped with air-source heat pumps or other forms of efficient electric heating.
