The addition of the independent, family-owned business adds a further strategic depot location to NWF’s already strong area presence. With NWF placing a high value on local knowledge and reputation as well as ensuring a seamless customer experience, a nine-strong Pinnock team has joined NWF.
Pinnock Brothers
With a history spanning over 150 years, Pinnock Brothers has stood the test of time, passing down through generations of the family, supplying fuel to local communities. Pinnock Brothers prides themselves on providing the best possible service, taking immense pride in a well-earned local reputation.
Fuelled for growth
NWF Fuels Sales Director, Mark Adcock commented: “I’m incredibly excited to announce our next acquisition so quickly, following the recent announcement of Northern Energy (Oil)!
“I am delighted that we have been able to strengthen our position in Southern England with the acquisition of Pinnock Brothers. Andrew (Pinnock – former owner) and his team have built a great reputation servicing domestic customers across Berkshire. We already have a strong presence in this area; however, Thatcham depot is a great fit within our existing depot network and will enable us to provide unrivalled service throughout the region.
“We are pleased to welcome nine members of the team to the business and look forward to our future growth together.”
Focused on expansion
“It’s an exciting time in the fuels industry,” Mark continues. “NWF Fuels is on a growth mission, and it’s great to be selected as the buyer by local family-run businesses, who are trusting us to continue driving their business and teams forward.
“Looking ahead, we remain focused on expansion. We’re actively seeking opportunities to grow our business and will continue to acquire.”
Andrew Pinnock, previous owner of Pinnock Fuels commented: “Meeting NWF Fuels confirmed they share our passion for customer service, which made it an easy decision for us to partner with them on the sale of our business. We wanted to make sure our staff were taken care of, and our reputation was maintained. We’re really pleased the team and business will stay local, continuing to offer the great service our customers depend on.”
Driving future growth
Looking confidently ahead Mark comments: “Backed by the resources and support of the wider NWF Group, we’ve been able to confidently execute ambitious growth plans. With our proven track record, dedicated team, and robust support, we’re well-positioned to sustain our momentum and drive future growth, focusing on fuels.”
