Looking Back at Where it all Began
7th March 2019 when our very first delivery of trailers arrived from Poland. Matt took 2 days off work, we borrowed a forklift and driver, called on an old friend for some muscle and quickly realised we didn’t have nearly enough storage space for the stock that had arrived. So we called on as many of our friends as we could find to help move and store trailers. Without those friends we’d have been in big trouble. They know who they are are we will never forget the support we got from so many great people.
Originally South West Trailers UK was only intended to be a side line business, but it soon became clear that actually the business was capable of so much more.
1 year later, on 1st March 2020, Matt gave up his job of 8 years and took on the role of running the business full time. And then…..we went in to lock down.
But here we are, over 5 years since that first lorry load and we’re still growing. We’ve got a massive range of trailers in stock and we’re growing our parts supply offer by the day too. Our brand new website has just launched, it needs a few tweaks, but it’s there.
Watch this space for our new online shop coming soon!
As always, a huge thanks goes to every single customer that has supported us and allowed us to get to where we are today. We’re still a small business but we’re extremely proud to be here.
