Screwfix Live 2019 Breaks Attendance Records
Screwfix welcomed more than 20,000 visitors across the weekend, crowned Britain’s Top Tradesperson 2019 and hosted Q&As with football legends, Matt Le Tissier, Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink and Emile Heskey.
In a bumper weekend at Farnborough Exhibition Centre, 150 suppliers came together under one roof, including Milwaukee, DeWalt, Makita, Karcher and Mountfield to give customers the opportunity to take part in demonstrations, activities and get hands on with the latest products.
The final of Britain’s Top Tradesperson took place at Screwfix LIVE for the first time and third-generation roofer, Darren came out on top and walked away with, not only the coveted title, but also a £20k tools, tech and training bundle.
Suppliers got their hands on the first ever Screwfix Products of the Year awards with Milwaukee, DeWalt, British General, Flomasta and No Nonsense winning across seven categories, voted on by customers.
Screwfix CEO John Mewett said: “Screwfix LIVE was an amazing weekend, once again. There was a real buzz around the show and our customers came out in force to see the latest products and deals from our suppliers.
Thank you to all the staff and suppliers who give up their weekends to put together this amazing and unique event that allows our customers to get hands on with our products!”
