Fifteen Years and a week of videos.
We had considerably more footage than we let you see.
Now our birthday's done, here's what didn't make the cut.

Turns out talking about your job on camera is much harder than doing it.

Thank you to everyone who watched the countdown, and to the team for agreeing to stand in front of a camera when they'd rather have been getting on with it.

Roll the blooper reel...

Happy birthday to us. 15 years.

From one website selling grit bins in 2011 to 35 people and 35,000+ products today, and not one bit of it done alone.

Thank you to our customers, our suppliers, our partners, and the team who make it work every day. We're only here because of you.

Now for the next 15.

It's our birthday!!

Fifteen years...

Kingfisher Direct started in 2011 because buying supplies for your business shouldn't be difficult. Clear ordering, real people and honest answers.

The bit we're proudest of isn't the product range, it's that some of the people who were here in year one are still here now, still picking up the phone, still knowing their stuff. That kind of loyalty isn't something you can buy in.

To everyone who's worked here, ordered from us, partnered with us, or given us a nudge in the right direction, thank you.

The full journey is in the video below.
