In June 2004, we at Rose & Company (Hull) Ltd will celebrate 55 years of service to the caravan, motor home, park home, commercial vehicle, boat and leisure industries. We were one of the first specialist wholesalers to supply these industries.

Throughout the 55 years Rose & Company have seen a great number of changes, and more recently, the awareness and higher standards required by manufacturers and suppliers regarding product and delivery performance. Customer requirements such as 'just in time' delivery and exacting product standards have led to a constant reappraisal of our product range and operating standards.

Rose & Company feels that our product range is something about which we should feel justifiably proud. In addition to cabinet fittings, hardware and general ironmongery, the company also offers the Omnistor range of Awnings, Top Boxes, Bike Racks and Omnivents etc.

New for this year we have expanded our Comet, and Smev ranges and have introduced Telair, Teleco Air Conditioners and TV Antennas and a range of 12v Lighting from Frilight. These ranges are extensively used in the current production of caravans, motor homes and boats.

The buying activity is obviously a key area within the Rose & Company profile. We constantly monitor suppliers to ensure they continue to provide us with products of the correct quality and price.

Rose & Company also locates non-standard items specified by our customers and can arrange for these products to be 'tooled up' exclusively.

The search for new, alternative and innovative products is seen as essential in the ever-changing market in which we at Rose & Company operate and we have a proven track record in this area. This has played a major part in maintaining our position as one of the industries' major wholesalers.
