Default Shops help

Heey everyone,

I am a student and making an report that will involve the UK tile market. Can anyone name me big tile chains, so not single shops, that are active around the country. The report involves selling tiles on the UK market, and approaching bigger chains is better than sell only a couple of boxes to individual shops.

Kind Regards

Thank you for your reply,

I have visted this site already a couple of times and could be indeed quite helpfull. Only this site does not mention (in my opinion) chain-tileretailers. Mainly individual shops are mentioned, please could anyone mention a couple of chains, so retailers with multiple outlets... like topps (I found that one by accident on the internet.

Thanks in advance!!!!

Lars

I'd put money on sWe being right with this. I've seen it too many times. Especially as it left darker rib marks on the plaster surface.
