Brammer becomes one organisation across Europe

Brammer, the leading pan-European distributor of industrial maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) products, has become a single trading organisation across Europe, uniting 11 separately-named companies under a single brand – Brammer.

The announcement completes a programme begun in 2004, when Brammer Group refocused its strategy and moved from wholly-owned, individually named, national businesses to a pan-European company supplying more than 100,000 customers from 265 locations, in 11 countries.

Chief executive Ian Fraser said: “Cost pressures on European manufacturers of all sizes are considerable. Any opportunity a supplier can offer to help reduce their operating and purchase costs, at the same time improving their production efficiency, is always welcome.

“While wanting to preserve the local nature of each of our national businesses, this move sees Brammer being able to deliver such savings, alongside a consistent level of high quality service and a broad range of world-beating branded products to customers from Aberdeen in Scotland, to Budapest in Hungary or Zaragoza in Spain.”
